Neuromodulation of neocortical microcircuitry: a multi-scale framework to model the effects of cholinergic release

Cristina Colangelo

Neuromodulation of neocortical microcircuits is one of the most fascinatingand mysterious aspects of brain physiology. Despite over a century of research,the neuroscientific community has yet to uncover the fundamentalbiological organizing principles under ...

Neuromodulatory organization in the developing rat somatosensory cortex

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Armando Romani, Cristina Colangelo, Alberto Antonietti, Joni Henrikki Herttuainen

The vast majority of cortical synapses are found in the neuropil which is implicated in multiple and diverse functions underlying brain computation. Unraveling the organizing principles of the cortical neuropil requires an intricate characterization of syn ...

Cellular, Synaptic and Network Effects of Acetylcholine in the Neocortex

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Daniel Keller, Cristina Colangelo, Polina Shichkova

The neocortex is densely innervated by basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic neurons. Long-range axons of cholinergic neurons regulate higher-order cognitive function and dysfunction in the neocortex by releasing acetylcholine (ACh). ACh release dynamically rec ...

Data-Driven Modeling of Cholinergic Modulation of Neural Microcircuits: Bridging Neurons, Synapses and Network Activity

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Cristina Colangelo

Neuromodulators, such as acetylcholine (ACh), control information processing in neural microcircuits by regulating neuronal and synaptic physiology. Computational models and simulations enable predictions on the potential role of ACh in reconfiguring netwo ...
