"Organization of olivocerebellar activity in the absence of excitatory glutamatergic input".
Changes in the excitatory synaptic inputs into these neurons have been shown to be important in mediating addiction-related behaviors.
Each Purkinje cell receives excitatory input from 100,000 to 200,000 parallel fibers.
The striatum receives excitatory inputs from the cortex and inhibits the pallidum.
Scaling has been found to occur when the strength of all of a neuron's excitatory inputs are scaled up or down.
Smaller neurons require a smaller amount of excitatory input to reach its threshold compared to larger neurons.
The level of PSD-95 appears to influence the balance of excitatory and inhibitory inputs.
This is thought to be due to the interaction of excitatory and inhibitory motoneuronal inputs.
As the executive neurons are firing, the spread of the wave is controlled by both excitatory and inhibitory inputs.
A pathway can be facilitated by excitatory input; removal of such input constitutes disfacilitation.
