Abstract: We modeled a segmental oscillator of the timing network that paces the heartbeat of the leech. This model represents a network of six heart interneurons that comprise the basic rhythm-generating network within a single ganglion. This model builds on a previous two cell model (Nadim et al., 1995) by incorporating modifications of intrinsic and synaptic currents based on the results of a realistic waveform voltage-clamp study (Olsen and Calabrese, 1996). Due to these modifications, the new model behaves more sim… Show more

“…Bistability of bursting and silent regimes had been demonstrated previously [24], but the mechanism supporting it was not described. The model contained nine voltage dependent currents: fast calcium current-I CaF , slow calcium current-I CaS , fast sodium current-I N a , delayed rectifier-potassium current-I K1 , persistent potassium current-I K2 , fast transient potassium current-I KA , hyperpolarization activated cationic current-I h , persistent sodium current-I P , and leak current-I leak and was described by a system of 14 differential equations [23] (Appendix). The parameters of the canonical model were tuned to produce activity with a waveform close to the one experimentally observed [23,24].…”

“…1). All parameters including E leak were set to the canonical values, but g leak was set to 10.7 nS; the canonical value is 9.9 nS [23,24]. The initial conditions of voltage and gating variables were set so that the model initially exhibited silence.…”

“…For our study, we used the HCO computational model of Hill et al [29], which was successfully developed to replicate the electrical activity (rhythmic alternating bursting of mutually inhibitory neurons) of the oscillator (HN) interneurons of the leech heartbeat CPG under a variety of experimental conditions. This HCO model consists of a two reciprocally inhibitory model HN interneurons, represented as single isopotential electrical compartments with Hodgkin and Huxley [30] type intrinsic and synaptic membrane conductances.…”
