abstract = {Electrical oscillations in neuronal network activity are
ubiquitous in the brain and have been associated with
cognition and behavior. Intriguingly, the amplitude of
ongoing oscillations, such as measured in EEG recordings,
fluctuates irregularly, with episodes of high amplitude
alternating with episodes of low amplitude. Despite the
widespread occurrence of amplitude fluctuations in many
frequency bands and brain regions, the mechanisms by which
they are generated are poorly understood. Here, we show that
irregular transitions between sub-second episodes of high-
and low-amplitude oscillations in the alpha/beta frequency
band occur in a generic neuronal network model consisting of
interconnected inhibitory and excitatory cells that are
externally driven by sustained cholinergic input and trains
of action potentials that activate excitatory synapses. In
the model, we identify the action potential drive onto
inhibitory cells, which represents input from other brain
areas and is shown to desynchronize network activity, to be
crucial for the emergence of amplitude fluctuations. We show
that the duration distributions of high-amplitude episodes
in the model match those observed in rat prefrontal cortex
for oscillations induced by the cholinergic agonist
carbachol. Furthermore, the mean duration of high-amplitude
episodes varies in a bell-shaped manner with carbachol
concentration, just as in mouse hippocampus. Our results
suggest that amplitude fluctuations are a general property
of oscillatory neuronal networks that can arise through
background input from areas external to the network.},
