sag amplitude

Common definition: Absolute difference between the steady state decrease in the voltage and the largest decrease in voltage following a hyperpolarizing current step.

Electrophysiological values of sag amplitude across neuron types from literature:

    Standardization criteria:
  • Values are unchanged from those reported. Refer to individual articles for definition and calculation methodology.
    • Legend:
  • Blue dots = text-mined values human curated; Orange dots = text-mined values not human curated
    • Interactivity:
  • Mouse over neuron report data points and click to view corresponding publication
  • Click on neuron name axis labels (e.g. Dentate gyrus granule cell) to view corresponding neuron page
  • Zoom in on a section of plot by dragging cursor. Zoom out by double clicking on plot.
