“…In particular, as discussed in Materials and Methods, the model explains the frequency of the SPW/Rs from anatomical knowledge on hippocampal recurrent excitatory connectivity (Knowles and Schwartzkroin, 1981;Christian and Dudek, 1988;Yang et al, 2014), from experimentally measured conduction delays (Andersen et al, 2000;Meeks and Mennerick, 2007), and from single-neuron properties, from the latency of dendritic spikes and their impact on the somatic membrane potential (Ariav et al, 2003;Kim et al, 2012;Müller et al, 2012;Makara and Magee, 2013). The model explains that ripples in CA3 have lower frequency and are less marked than those in CA1, by the larger average and broader distributed axonal conduction delay in the more globally connected CA3 network.…”
