Simulation of calcium signaling in fine astrocytic processes: Effect of spatial properties on spontaneous activity

Table 1

Parameter values and initial conditions of the 2D model.

a.u: arbitrary unit. In 2d, by definition, a MC time unit is 100 Δt and one MC space unit is set by the interaction radius of IP₃R, i.e. space unit. δ, β, μ, γ, b₁, b₂ and b₃ are first order constants, in (MC time unit)⁻¹. Diffusion coefficients D_Ca and D_IP3 are expressed in (MC space unit)².(MC time unit)⁻¹ whereas α, a₁, a₂, a₃ are expressed in (MC space unit)².(MC time unit)⁻¹.
