Differential contributions of Ca<sup>2+</sup> -activated K<sup>+</sup> channels and Na<sup>+</sup> /K<sup>+</sup> -ATPases to the generation of the slow afterhyperpolarization in CA1 pyramidal cells.

Paper summary

Investigates the slow afterhyperpolarization in rat hippocampal neurons near physiological temperature. Calcium-activated potassium currents and sodium-potassium pumps contribute, with pumps dominating some short-spike-train responses.

Relevance to the project

A mechanism lead for history-dependent intrinsic negative feedback and multiple timescales within F. Such regulation could help bound activity without guaranteeing useful dynamics.

Specific ion-channel roles vary with preparation and stimulation.
