Abstrakt: Dendritic spikes function as cardinal components of rodent neocortical circuit computations. Recently, the biophysical properties of human pyramidal neurons (PNs) have been reported to be divergent, raising the question of whether dendritic spikes have homologous roles in the human neocortex. To directly address this, we made electrical recordings from the soma and apical dendrites of human and rat layer 2/3 PNs of the temporal cortex. In both species, dendritic excitatory input led to the initiation of sodium-channel-mediated dendritic spikes. Dendritic sodium spikes could be generated across a wide input range, exhibited a similar frequency range of activation, and forward-propagated with high-fidelity to implement stereotyped computations in human and rat PNs. However, the physical expansion and complexification of the apical dendritic trees of human PNs allowed the enriched expression of dendritic spike generation. The computational capacity of human PNs is therefore enhanced by the widespread implementation of a conserved dendritic integration mechanism.
