Figure 1 Electrical Synapses Preferentially Transmit Spike AHPs that Inhibit and Desynchronize the Local Network (A) Schematic three-neuron network electrically coupled by gap junctions with variable strengths (denoted by the number of gap junction channels). Only cell 1 receives excitatory synaptic input. (B) A spike in cell 1 triggers mainly hyperpolarizing electrical PSPs in cells 2 and 3. Because of the low-pass filtering properties of electrically coupled cell pairs, the slow AHP propagates much more readily than the high-frequency spike. Attenuation of the electrical PSP is proportional to gap junctional strength. (C) Under resting conditions, the three cells spike synchronously. When the excitatory synaptic input to cell 1 is activated (vertical dotted line), variably sized hyperpolarizing PSPs are generated in cells 2 and 3. Heterogeneous PSPs lead to transient desynchronization. With time, synchrony is reestablished. (Based on Vervaeke et al., 2010.)
