General data

• ICG id: 1980

• Reference: Huguenard J, McCormick DA (1997): Electrophysiology of the Neuron, A Companion to Shepherd's Neurobiology, An Interactive Tutorial.

Metadata classes

• Animal Model: rat
• Brain Area: thalamocortical circuit
• Neuron Region: unspecified
• Neuron Type: thalamocortical relay cell (TC, TCR)
• Runtime Q: Q2
• Subtype: T-type

Metadata generic

• Age: 7-14 days old
• Authors: A Destexhe, A Houweling
• Comments: Low threshold calcium current, responsible for low threshold spikes (lts) in reticular thalamus, from huguenard & mccormick 1992, written by a destexhe 1992. Adapted from destexhe et al. (1996), model no. 3343, with various differences. This is from a tutorial, not much is explained about the model. The animal model here is from huguenard and mccormick (1992), and most kinetics are from there as well.
• Runtime: 7.743
• Temperature: No temperature dependence.
