Fast and reliable identification of axons, axon initial segments and dendrites with local field potential recording

Fast and reliable identification of axons, axon initial segments and dendrites with local field potential recording

The axon initial segment (AIS) is an essential neuronal compartment. It is usually where action potentials are initiated. Recent studies demonstrated that the AIS is a plastic structure that can be regulated by neuronal activity and by the activation of metabotropic receptors. Studying the AIS in li...
