Action potentials initiate in the axon initial segment and propagate through axon collaterals reliably in cerebellar Purkinje neurons
Purkinje neurons are the output cells of the cerebellar cortex and generate spikes in two
distinct modes, known as simple and complex spikes. Revealing the point of origin of these …

Where is the spike generator of the cochlear nerve? Voltage-gated sodium channels in the mouse cochlea
WA Hossain, SD Antic, Y Yang… - Journal of …, 2005 - Soc Neuroscience
The origin of the action potential in the cochlea has been a long-standing puzzle. Because
voltage-dependent Na+(Nav) channels are essential for action potential generation, we …

Role of delayed nonsynaptic neuronal plasticity in long-term associative memory
Background It is now well established that persistent nonsynaptic neuronal plasticity occurs
after learning and, like synaptic plasticity, it can be the substrate for long-term memory. What …
