Minimal model of gabaa receptors. Model of destexhe, mainen and sejnowski (1994), also in destexhe mainen and sejnowski (1998). Based on expt data from otis and mody (1992). Written by a destexhe, 1995. This is a modeling study, and the animal model is considered to be rat. The authors compare the model to experimental results mostly in rats (e.g. Magee 1998, spruston et al. 1995) and the morphology used is also from rat (2 months old, cannon et al. 1998, n123). Channel kinetics come from various sources.
Temperature:
No apparent temperature dependence. Simulations were done at 34 deg C.
