Metabolic Cost of Dendritic Ca2+ Action Potentials in Layer 5 Pyramidal Neurons
Pyramidal neurons consume most signaling-related energy to generate action potentials (APs) and perform synaptic integration. Dendritic Ca2+ spike is an important integration mechanism for coupling inputs from different cortical layers. Our objective was to quantify the metabolic energy associated w...
