Biophysical Network Modelling of the dLGN Circuit: Different Effects of Triadic and Axonal Inhibition on Visual Responses of Relay Cells
Fig 10
Summary of response measures from area-response curves with triadic inhibition present.
(A) Ratio of receptive-field center diameter of relay cell (RC) and (central) retinal ganglion cell (GC), ; receptive-field center diameter measured as the spot diameter corresponding to the largest firing rate in the area-summation curves in Fig 9. (B) Ratio of receptive-field center diameter of interneuron (IN) and relay cell (RC),
. (C) Relay-cell αR (solid) and interneuron αI (dashed) center-surround antagonisms, cf. Eq 7. (D) Maximal firing rate rc, i.e., firing rate for spot exactly covering receptive-field center, for relay cell (
, solid) and interneuron (
, dashed). The colored lines correspond to different values of wGIp, see legend below panels. Note also that interneuron (IN) results are absent for the case with wGIp = 0 (blue lines) since in this case the IN only receives triadic input and does not fire any action potentials.
