Resonance effect for neural spike time reliability.

abstract：:Depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition (DSI) is a form of retrograde signaling at GABAergic synapses that is initiated by the calcium- and depolarization-dependent release of endocannabinoids from postsynaptic neurons. In the neocortex, pyramidal neurons (PNs) appear to use DSI as a mechanism for regulating ...
