Input-rate modulation of γ oscillations is sensitive to network topology, delays and short-term plasticity.

Abstract:

:Simulated networks of excitatory and inhibitory neurons have previously been shown to reproduce critical features of experimental data regarding neural coding in V1, such as a positive relationship between thalamic input spike rate and the power of gamma frequency oscillations. This effect, referred to as modulated gamma power, could represent a neural code in V1 for stimulus characteristics that affect thalamic spike rate such as contrast or intensity. The simulated network's assumptions included homogeneous random connectivity, equal synaptic delays after spike arrival, and constant synaptic efficacies. Plausible alternative assumptions include small world connectivity, a wide distribution of axonal propagation delays, and short term synaptic plasticity, and here we assess the individual impact of each of these on the model's success in reproducing modulated gamma power. First, we developed several alternative algorithms for simulating directed networks with clustered connectivity and balanced excitation and inhibition. We found that modulated gamma power was absent in all small-world networks that had a relatively low abundance of reciprocal connectivity, which suggests that such motifs are present in V1 cortical networks at levels at least equal to those found in random networks. We also found in a different network type that the balance of excitation and inhibition could be destroyed when the network was in the small-world regime. Given all neurons had identical in-degrees, this result suggests that balance relies on motif distributions as well as mean connectivity. Second, altering the distribution of axonal delays had little effect, but increasing the mean delay led to a secondary gamma modulation at harmonics of the main peak, and since this is not observed experimentally, it suggests a mean delay in V1 networks less than 2 ms. Finally, we compared two types of excitatory synaptic plasticity, and found that modulated beta power emerged in addition to gamma power for one type, in the presence of short term depression in interneurons. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Neural Coding".
