<para>
This CellML model runs in OpenCell and COR to reproduce the published results (Figure 4 A3 where E_L = -57.5 mv). Please note that the model has to be run for a duration of 10000 ms with a step size of 0.01 ms and a high point density of 100000 points/graph. This model represents model 1 from the published paper (which does not include a slow potassium current).

ABSTRACT: A network of oscillatory bursting neurons with excitatory coupling is hypothesized to define the primary kernel for respiratory rhythm generation in the pre-Botzinger complex (pre-BotC) in mammals. Two minimal models of these neurons are proposed. In model 1, bursting arises via fast activation and slow inactivation of a persistent Na+ current INaP-h. In model 2, bursting arises via a fast-activating persistent Na+ current INaP and slow activation of a K+ current IKS. In both models, action potentials are generated via fast Na+ and K+ currents. The two models have few differences in parameters to facilitate a rigorous comparison of the two different burst-generating mechanisms. Both models are consistent with many of the dynamic features of electrophysiological recordings from pre-BotC oscillatory bursting neurons in vitro, including voltage-dependent activity modes (silence, bursting, and beating), a voltage-dependent burst frequency that can vary from 0.05 to >1 Hz, and a decaying spike frequency during bursting. These results are robust and persist across a wide range of parameter values for both models. However, the dynamics of model 1 are more consistent with experimental data in that the burst duration decreases as the baseline membrane potential is depolarized and the model has a relatively flat membrane potential trajectory during the interburst interval. We propose several experimental tests to demonstrate the validity of either model and to differentiate between the two mechanisms.

<caption>The first mathematical model is based on a single-compartment Hodgkin-Huxley type formalism. It is composed of five ionic currents across the plasma membrane: a fast sodium current, I<subscript>Na</subscript>; a delayed rectifier potassium current, I<subscript>K</subscript>; a persistent sodium current, I<subscript>NaP</subscript>; a passive leakage current, I<subscript>L</subscript>; and a tonic current, I<subscript>tonic_e</subscript> (although this last current is considered to be inactive in these models).</caption>
