Usage:

Auto-launch from ModelDB or:

Compile the mod files with mknrndll (mswin or graphical mac) or

nrnivmodl (unix/linux)). Start the simulation by (unix/linux) typing

on the command line:

nrngui mosinit.hoc

or (mac os x) drag and dropping the mosinit.hoc file on the nrngui

icon or (mswin) double clicking on the mosinit.hoc file.

After selecting the option corresponding to the modulation of the NMDA and AMPA receptor properties, simulation will reproduce the temporal summation of composite glutamatergic EPSPs at the stimulation frequency of 10 Hz (as in fig. 6C of the paper).

Example: clicking on Astrocites only on the initial window should produce the following graph:
