The Cable Theory for Passive Cell
Use the mathematical frame work of linear cable theory and the elec. circuit representation
of neuronal cell membrane to understand how membrane potential is affected in function of
neuronal cell geometry. Important to understand concepts like synaptic integration
Assumptions:
Membrane parameters are linear and independent of mem. potential (passive) ; current
entering the cable flows linearly (homogeneous); resistance of extracellular medium is zero
(cell immersed in homogeneous isopotential medium, the reference)

Ralls Model-Equivalent cylinder
Basic Idea: Impedence matching
Assumptions:
1. The membrane properties are identical for
soma and dendritic
branches.
2. Membrane properties are uniform and
voltage independent
3. All dendritic branches terminate at the same
electrotonic length (and the tip of dendrite ends
are sealed)

Synaptic Integration
Model for current injection into neuron
through synapse-alpha function
Use XPP AUTO to answer following
Questions (Cable.ode)
1. Sketch the potential at the soma for the synaptic input at
compartments 0, 5, 10, and 20.
1a.How do the peak amplitudes depend on distance?
1b. How about the time to peak?
1c.Does the peak appear to decay slower or faster for more
distant
inputs?
1d. How does the potential scale across various compartments
For synaptic input at different locations on the cable
