Distribution of synaptic mechanisms in the model cell.

The SR main apical trunk section consists of the apical trunk dendrites located beyond 13.40 (1.34·10−5 m) and up to 292.06 (2.9206·10−4 m) microns from the soma whereas SR oblique dendrites correspond to the side branches found within 0 to 300.94 microns (3.0094·10−4 m) from the soma. The SLM layer contains the thick apical dendrites located within 386 to 424.75 microns (3.86·10−4 to 4.2475·10−4 m) from the soma and the side branches located beyond 419 microns (4.19·10−4 m) from the soma. The soma receives only inhibitory input.
