Intrinsic electrophysiological properties arising from specific combinations of voltage-gated channels are fundamental for the performance of small neural networks in invertebrates, but their role in large-scale vertebrate circuits remains controversial. Although spinal neurons have complex intrinsic properties, some tasks produce high-conductance states that override intrinsic conductances, mi...

introduction: antibiotic supplements are regularly used in neuronal culture media to control contamination however, they can interfere with the neuronal excitability and affect electrophysiological properties. therefore, in this study, the effect of penicillin/streptomycin supplements on the spontaneous electrophysiological activity of hippocampal pyramidal neurons was examined. methods: electr...

Passive and active membrane properties determine the voltage responses of neurons. Within the auditory brain stem, refinements in these intrinsic properties during late postnatal development usually generate short integration times and precise action-potential generation. This developmentally acquired temporal precision is crucial for auditory signal processing. How the interactions of these in...

Abstract I explore the relationship between a prominent analysis of intrinsic properties, due to Langton and Lewis, phenomenon quantum entanglement. As argue, faces puzzle. The full classifies certain properties entangled particles as intrinsic. But when combined with an extremely plausible assumption about duplication, main part those non-intrinsic instead. conclude that much Lewis’s metaphysi...

self-determination theory (sdt) states that satisfaction of basic psychological needs, including the need for autonomy, competence and relatedness will lead to intrinsic motivation. this study examines the relationship between basic psychological needs and intrinsic motivation of iranian female students in mathematics. for this purpose, 382 students of five school responded to the scale of intr...

Biological neurons have a variety of intrinsic properties because of the large number of voltage dependent currents that control their activity. Neuromodulatory substances modify both the balance of conductances that determine intrinsic properties and the strength of synapses. These mechanisms alter circuit dynamics, and suggest that functional circuits exist only in the modulatory environment ...

Riboflavin and protoporphyrin IX are two molecules that participate in oxidation and reduction reactions in the living cell. Changing some functional groups of riboflavin and protoporphyrin IX can provide compounds with self-assembled monolayer properties with wide applications in designing the molecular electronic devices. In this study, the amphiphilic structure of riboflavin and protopor...
