Cable theory
• Developed by Kelvin to describe properties of current flow in transatlantic telegraph cables.
• The capacitance of the “membrane” leads to temporal and spatial differences in transmembrane voltage.
From Johnston & Wu, 1995

Cable properties, unit properties• For membrane, per unit area
– Ri = specific intracellular resistivity (~100 -cm) – Rm = specific membrane resistivity (~20000 -cm2)
• Gm =specific membrane conductivity (~0.05 S/cm2)– Cm = specific membrane capacitance (~ 1 F/cm2)
• For cylinder, per unit length:– ri = axial resistance (units = /cm)
• Intracellular resistance ()= resistivity (Ricm) * length (l, cm)/ cross sectional area (πr2, cm2)
• Resistance per length (ri) = resistivity / cross sectional area = Ri/πr2 (/cm) – For 1 m neurite (axon) = 100 -cm/(π*.00005 cm2) = ~13G/cm = 1.3 G/mm = 1.3M/m– For 5 m neurite (dendrite) = 100 -cm/(π*.00025cm2) = ~ 500 M/cm = 50 M/mm = 50k/m
– rm = membrane resistance (units: cm, divide by length to obtain total resistance) • Rm2πr. Probably more intuitive to consider reciprocal resistance, or conductance:
– In a neurite total conductance is Gm2πrl, i.e. proportional to membrane area (circumference * length) • Normalized conductance per unit length (gm) = Gm2πr (S/cm)
– For 1 m neurite (axon) = 0.05 S/cm2(2π*.00005cm) = ~16 nS/cm ~ 1.6pS/m» (equivalent normalized membrane resistance, rm obtained via reciprocation is ~60 Mohm-cm)
– For 5 m neurite (dendrite) = 0.05 S/cm2(2π*.00025cm) = ~80 nS/cm ~ 8pS/m» (rm ~ 13 Mohm-cm)
– cm = membrane capacitance (units: F/cm)• Derived as for gm, normalized capacitance per unit length = Cm2πr (F/cm)
– For 1 m neurite (axon) = 1 F/cm2(2π*.00005cm) = ~300 pF/cm ~ 30 fF/m– For 5 m neurite (dendrite) = 1 F/cm2(2π*.00025cm) = ~1.6 nF/cm ~160 fF/m

Compartmental models
• Can be developed by combining individual cylindrical components
• Each will have its own source of current and EL via the parallel conductance model
• Current will flow between compartments (on both ends) based on V and Ri

Collapsing branch structures
• From cable theory– conductance of a cable =
• (/2) (RmRi)-1/2(d)3/2
• When a branch is reached the conductances of the two daughter branches should be matched to that of the parent branch for optimal signal propagation
• This occurs when the sum of the two daughter g’s are equal to the parent g, which occurs when
• d03/2 = d13/2 + d23/2
• This turns out to be true for many neuronal structures
