Action Potential Propagation in Dendrites of Rat Mitral Cells In Vivo.

Presents a study that investigated in vivo the extent of the propagation of action potentials in dendrites of rat mitral cells. Discussion on the role of β-ϒ frequency field oscillations in reflecting the synchronous discharges of mitral cells; Methods used in determining the changes in transient intracellular calcium triggered by the potentials; Suggestions with regard to an axonal-like behavior accompanying the presence of the release sites in dendrites.
