Tonic GABA(A) conductance decreases membrane time constant and increases EPSP-spike precision in hippocampal pyramidal neurons

Because of a complex dendritic structure, pyramidal neurons have a large membrane surface relative to other cells and so a large electrical capacitance and a large membrane time constant (τ(m)). This results in slow depolarizations in response to excitatory synaptic inputs, and consequently increase...
