Two inhibitory neurons can “trigger” each other resulting in synchronization
For gC
= 0.3 mS/cm2
Wang & Rinzel, 1992 Neural Computation, 4:84
Set dV/dt = 0 and dh/dt = 0
h = [gL(V-VL)+gsyn(V-Vsyn)]/ [gCm3
(V) (VC-V)]
or h = h (V),
gsyn = 0, when no inhibition from the synapse
No inhibitory signal is transmitted whenV < -44 mV

For gC = 1.0 mS/cm2
An activated V1 can not inhibit V2, if gC is high enough.

Gamma wave (~40–100 Hz)
The wave is easily observed in EEG on awake animals, has been suggested to be related to various daily work, speaking, attention and learing (Miltner et al, 1999, Nature 397:434).
An interneuronal network can generate a coherent oscillatory output to the pyramidal neurons, thereby providing a substrate for the synaptic organization of coherent gamma population oscillations.
When metabotropic glutamate receptors were activated, transient oscillatory IPSPs in the 40 Hz frequency range were observed in pyramidal cells, without AMPA and NMDA activity. (Whittington et al., 1995, Naute, 373:612)
The interneuron with GABAergic synapses in the hippocampus has been shown to fire with gamma frequency (Sik et al, 1995, J. Neuroscience: 15:6651).

Model neuron Each interneuron is described by :Cm (dV/dt) = -INa - IK - IL - Isyn + Iapp , where Cm = 1 F/cm2 and Iapp is the injected current (in A/cm2). The leak current IL = gL(V - EL) has a conductance gL = 0.1 mS/cm2, so thatthe passive time constant 0 = Cm/gL = 10 msec; EL = -65 mV.
The spike-generating Na+ and K+ voltage-dependent ion currents (INa
and IK) are of the Hodgkin–Huxley type (Hodgkin and Huxley, 1952).The transient sodium current INa = gNam3
h(V - ENa), where the activation variable m is assumed fast and substituted by its steady-state function m = m/(m + m); m(V) = -0.1(V + 35)/(exp(-0.1(V +35)) - 1), m(V) = 4exp(-(V + 60)/18). The inactivation variable h obeys a first-order kinetics:dh/dt = (h(1 – h) - hh) where h(V) = 0.07 exp(-(V + 58)/20) and h(V) = 1/(exp(-0.1(V -28)) + 1). gNa = 35 mS/cm2; ENa = 55 mV, = 5.

The delayed rectifier IK = gKn4 (V - EK), where the activation variable n obeys the following equation:dn/dt = ( n(1 – n) - nn) with n(V) = -0.01(V + 34)/(exp(-0.1(V + 34)) - 1) and n(V) = 0.1-5exp(2(V + 44)/80); gK = 9 mS/cm2, and EK = -90 mV.Parameters are chosen such that the repolarization is 15 mV below the threshold (~-55 mV) but above the EK and the firing frequency can reach high value.

Model synapse. The synaptic current Isyn = gsyns(V - Esyn), where gsyn
is the maximal synaptic conductance and Esyn is the reversal potential.
Typically, we set gsyn = 0.1 mS/cm2 and Esyn = -75 mV (inhibitory).
The gating variable s represents the fraction of open synaptic ion
channels.
ds/dt = F(Vpre)(1 – s) - s, where the normalized concentration of the postsynaptic transmitter receptor complex, F(Vpre), is assumed to be an instantaneous and sigmoid function of the presynaptic membrane potential, (Perkel et al.,1981; Wang and Rinzel 1993):
F(Vpre) = 1/(1 + exp(-(Vpre - syn)/2)), where
syn (set to 0 mV) is high enough so that the transmitter release occurs only when the presynaptic cell emits a spike.
The channel opening rate = 12 /msec assures a fast rise of the Isyn, and
the channel closing rate is the inverse of the decay time constant of the Isyn; typically, we set = 0.1/ msec ( syn = 10 msec).

Random network connectivity. The network model consists of N cells. The coupling between neurons is randomly assigned, with a fixed average number of synaptic inputs per neuron, Msyn.
The coherence between two neurons i and j is measured by their cross-correlation of spike trains at zero time lag within a time bin of t = . More specifically, suppose that a long time interval T is divided into small bins of and that two spike trains are given by X(l) = 0 or 1, Y(l) = 0 or 1, l=1, 2, . . . , K (T/K = ).Define a coherence measure for the pair as:ij() = lX(l)Y(l)/[lX(l)lY(l)]1/2
The population coherence measure () is defined by the average of ij(t) over many pairs of neurons in the network. () is between 0 and 1 for all . For very small , () is close to 1 (0) in the case of maximal synchrony (asynchrony).
Initially, the membrane potential is uniformly distributed between -70 and -50 mV and the other channel-gating variables are set at their corresponding steady-state values. Coherence was calculated after 1000 msec transients. N = 100 neurons.

The simulated single interneuron has the typical excitable and inhibitory property
An increased injection current causes higher firing frequency

A Network coupled by GABAA synapses can synchronize
Neurons are identical and coupled in an all-to-all fashion.
The network results in a two- state synchronization if the kinetics of the Na, K current further slows down.
The network takes longer time to synchronize when kinetics of the Na, K current slows down (smaller ).

No synchronization occurs in the network if the synapse is excitatory (Esynp = 0 mV), even though each neuron has more or less the same firing frequency (~43Hz here).
Wang & Buzsaki, 1996, J. Neurosci.16:6402–6413

The synchronization breaks down if the Iapp is not homogeneous to all neurons
The coherence of the network is reduced when the standard deviation of the Iapp is increased, assuming a Gaussian distribution,

although the mean firing frequency does not change many.
Iapp = 1 A/cm2

The number of synapse on each neuron is critical of the networkSynchronization (simulation method ???)
Only ~5 is necessary of synchronization if every neuron has the same number of synapse, minimum ~40 if randomly connected in a network of 100 neurons.
The critical synapse number is not sensitive to the strength of the synapse.
The critical number is increased if the Iapp
intensity is increased.
The size of the network has little effect on critical synapse number of synchronization.

There is an optimal synaptic time constant for the coherence of a not-all-connected and inhomogeneous network. (Msyn = 60, I = 0.3)
The optimal synaptic time constant is about 0.2 of the mean oscillation period.

Theta oscillations (6–10 Hz), although no consensus has yet emerged, duringREM sleep (Jouvet, 1969) and during various activities described by the subjective terms “voluntary,” “preparatory,” “orienting,” or “exploratory” (Vanderwolf, 1969). also thought to occur during navigation (Kahana et al, 1999, Nature 399:781)
Theta oscillation is observed in the str. lacunosum-moleculare of hippocampal CA1 or CA3 region and many other part in the brain such as entorhinal cortex, amigdala etc.. (Buzsaki, 2002, Neuron 33:325)
Simulation of network synchronization is done for both an isolated population of medial septal (MS) GABAergic cells and for a reciprocally inhibitory loop between the MS and the hippocampus.

Synchronization at the gamma frequency range is possible in septal region

Summary
A stable synchronized firing can occur among inhibitory neurons.
Individual channel kinetics (decay time etc) may be a major factor regulating the collective properties of a neural network.
Dynamic mutual interactions generate new properties beyond the scale of individual elements

Some thoughts
Do the networks in the brain work separately ?
How sij will become when LTP is considered ?
How a transient synchronization of a neural network form and fall ?
How far away can the “signal” be transmitted from the septal region ? A better experimental protocol become necessary to investigate the properties of neurons from individual cells to the whole network simultaneously.
