Computing spike directivity with tetrodes
چکیده انگلیسی
The ability of neurons to generate electrical signals is strongly dependent on the evolution of ion-specific pumps and channels that allow the transfer of charges under the influence of electric fields and concentration gradients. This paper presents a novel method by which flow of these charge fluxes may be computed to provide directivity of charge movement. Simulations of charge flow as well as actual electrophysiological data recorded by tetrodes are used to demonstrate the method. The propagation of charge fluxes in space in data from simulation and actual recordings during action potential can be analyzed using signals recorded by tetrodes. Variation in spike directivity can be estimated by computing singular value decomposition of the estimated 3D trajectory data. The analysis of the spike model can be accomplished by performing simulations of presumed equivalent moving charges recorded by the tetrode tips. For in vivo spike recordings, the variation of spike directivity could be obtained using several spikes of selected neurons considering the charge movement model (CMM). The relationship between computer simulation results and tetrode data recordings is examined. The paper concludes by showing that the method for calculating directivity in actual spike recordings is robust. The method allows for improved filtering of data and more importantly may shed light on furthering the study of spatio-temporal encoding in neurons.
