We demonstrate that in response to changes in activity, cultured cortical pyramidal neurons regulate intrinsic excitability to promote stability in firing. Depriving pyramidal neurons of activity ...

They provide convincing evidence for reduced excitability of parvalbumin-positive fast-spiking interneurons, but not in neighboring excitatory neurons, and suggest that this may contribute to seizures ...

For instance, bilateral anodal tDCS over the tongue M1 in healthy individuals induced more enhanced cortical excitability and tongue motor function than unilateral stimulation (84). Also, in a later ...

101,102 These results suggest that poststroke fatigue was most likely triggered by reduced homeostatic rebalancing of spontaneous neuronal firing rates in the period after stroke, therein, leading to ...
