Compartmental model of a mitral cell (Popovic et al. 2005)

Usage of a morphologically realistic compartmental model of a mitral cell and data obtained from whole-cell patch-clamp and voltage-imaging experiments in order to explore passive parameter space in which reported low EPSP attenuation is observed.

Cell Type(s): Olfactory bulb main mitral GLU cell

Currents: I K,leak

Model Concept(s): Action Potential Initiation; Olfaction

Simulation Environment: NEURON

Implementer(s): Popovic, Marko [tica at ibiss.bg.ac.yu]
