This paper presents a two-compartment computational model of CA3 pyramidal neurons to investigate how extracellular electric fields influence neuronal behavior via ephaptic transmission. The model is matched to subthreshold experimental responses at rest and used to analyze how DC and sinusoidal fields affect…

This in vitro study examined how cortical neuron morphology and cell type relate to responses under subthreshold and suprathreshold uniform electric fields in rat motor cortex slices. The authors report that morphology correlates with subthreshold somatic polarization and that layer V pyramidal neurons are predicted…
