  1. How neurons integrate thousands of synaptic inputs each second Dieter Jaeger Department of Biology Emory University djaeger@emory.edu

  2. The textbook view

  3. KSJ 4th ed., Fig. 10-7

  4. Kandel, 4th edition

  5. In vivo input levels 100 mm 100 mm • GP neuron • surface area: 17,700 mm2 • number of synapses (ex/in): 1,200 / 6,800 • number of inputs / s 12,000 / 6,800 • Ca3 pyramidal neuron • surface area: 38,800 mm2 • number of synapses (ex/in): 17,000 / 2,000 • number of inputs / s 170,000 / 20,000

  6. In vivo recording from striatal medium spiny neuron

  7. Coding with thousands of inputs each second

  8. Isyn = Gin * (Vm - Ein) + Gex * (Vm - Eex) Esyn = (Gin * Ein)+ (Gex * Eex) / (Gin+ Gex) Isyn = (Gin + Gex)* (Vm - Esyn) Isyn = (300 nS) * (60-50mV) = 3 nA 5,000 AMPA and 500 GABAA Synapses at 10 Hz Ein = -70 mV Eex = 0 mV

  9. dynamic current clamp DCN neuron patch pipette Isyn = Iex + Iin = Gex*(Vm-Eex) + Gin*(Vm-Ein) Isyn Vm AxoClamp 2B Vm slice, 32 C Isyn To apply in vivo like input

  10. Dynamic current clamping of GP neuron

  11. current versus conductance source Vm Esyn - 40 mV 5 mV Isyn outward Iexp 0 nA inward 0.2 nA 100 msec

  12. Input current Isyn outward Iexp 0 nA inward 0.1 nA 50 ms spike triggering events Input frequency 1.0 Input conductance input synchronization: 10 groups 100 groups 50 ms

  13. Small conductance K[Ca] current (Sk)

  14. The effect of Sk block on synaptic integration

  15. Space! The next frontier

  16. Shunting by somatic conductance

  17. Shunting by distributed conductance

  18. Functional Implications • synaptic conductance stabilizes Vm through shunting • spikes can only be triggered from transients • spikes reflect inputs correlated on the order of 1-10 ms • spike rate reflects correlation as well as input rate • inhibition has equal access to the control of spiking

  19. More complexity to come • gap junctions • short term plasticity (history dependence) • calcium signaling • dendritic spike initiation
