Dendritic hotspots have been shown to play a determining role as local activity foci during sensory information coding and memory formation in cortical neurons in vivo. Here we aim to reveal the characteristics of co-activating more dendritic hotspots themselves within a dynamic time window. Using electrical stimulation and patterned two-photon uncaging for the coincident activation of two neighboring dendritic hotspots in rat hippocampal CA1 interneurons, the evoked local dendritic Ca2+ and the associated excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) summed supralinearly. Between active hotspots, supralinearity was present in a relatively broad temporal ([~]10 ms) and spatial ([~]30 {micro}m) window, mediated by NMDA receptors. Though at larger inter-hotspot distances (>30 {micro}m) supralinear summation of EPSPs was replaced by sublinear integration, the summation of dendritic Ca2+ responses remained supralinear. The inter-hotspot integration represents a novel signal integration state, extending the interaction distance between dendritic inputs, and allowing long-range coincidence detection.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
