Action potentials that go the distance

Neuron
Ricardo C Araneda, Stuart Firestein

Abstract

Dendrodendritic inhibition between mitral and granule cells in the olfactory bulb is thought to play an important role in olfactory discrimination. In this issue of Neuron, explore the propagation of action potentials along the secondary dendrites of mitral cells and their modulation by dendrodendritic inhibition.
