Fig 10. PC synchronization is controlled by STP of both excitation and inhibition, whereas PC pause response is less dependent on STP of inhibition.
(A) The gain of synchronization regulated differently by STP of ML-PC inhibition Uinh and excitation GC-PC Uexc under bursts with different spikes and frequencies. Each inner rectangle in each panel represents the gain of network synchronization under one burst protocol. (Top) Bursts with 2, 5 and 7 spikes at fixed 200 Hz. (Bottom) Bursts with 10 spikes at 50, 100, 200 and 300 Hz. Note that the gain was defined as the relative change calculated by the average Knet with STP subtracted by that without STP. (B) Similar to (A) but for pause duration induced by bursts.
