Integration of subthreshold and suprathreshold excitatory barrages along the somatodendritic axis of pyramidal neurons.

Neurons integrate inputs arriving in different cellular compartments to produce action potentials that are transmitted to other neurons. Because of the voltage- and time-dependent conductances in the dendrites and soma, summation of synaptic inputs is complex. To examine summation of membrane potent...
