โฆ Synopsis
Effects of membrane current noise on spike propagation along a nerve fiber are studied. Additive current noise and channel noise are considered by using stochastic versions of the Hodgkin-Huxley model. The results of computer simulation show that the membrane noise causes considerable variation of the propagation time of a spike (thus changes in interspike intervals) for a small unmyelinated fiber of radius 0.1 ~ 1 Inn.

We consider the problem of the existence of a negative slope region (NSR) in the voltage-current curve of the neuronal membrane and the relationship between this phenomenon and the membrane parameters. For the Hodgkin-Huxley model it is proposed to determine the dependence of the number of NSR on th
