Other Forms of Non-Synaptic (Intrinsic) Plasticity
- Researchers have artificially raised the Neuronal excitability below threshold. It leads to a greater number of firings.
- Researchers can modulate the axons with glutamate puffs and this will affect the action potential traveling along the axon.
- Researchers can modulate dendritic excitability. If the volume is smaller, the EPSP will be summed up leading to AP, the synapse location will also modulate the excitability nearer the soma will be higher as there isn't a loss of charge.
