TITLE Fast transient sodium current
COMMENT
neuromodulation is added as functions:
modulation = 1 + damod*(maxMod-1)*level
where:
damod [0]: is a switch for turning modulation on or off {1/0}
maxMod [1]: is the maximum modulation for this specific channel (read from the param file)
e.g. 10% increase would correspond to a factor of 1.1 (100% +10%) {0-inf}
level [0]: is an additional parameter for scaling modulation.
Can be used simulate non static modulation by gradually changing the value from 0 to 1 {0-1}

COMMENT
Original data by Ogata and Tatebayashi (1990) [1]. Neostriatal neurons
of medium size (putative medium spiny neurons) freshly isolated from
the adult guinea pig brain (either sex, 200 g). Data compensated for
the liquid junction potential (-13 mV). Experiments carried out at room
temperature (22 C). Conductance fitted by m3h kinetics.
Smooth fit of mtau and htau data [1] by Alexander Kozlov <akozlov@kth.se>
assuming natural logarithm of tau values [1, Figs. 5 and 9] and
temperature correction factor of 1.8 [2] as suggested by Robert Lindroos
<robert.lindroos@ki.se>.
