This study uses whole-brain fluorescence imaging in Drosophila to observe spreading depression, showing it initiates at multiple sites and is followed by a refractory period that increases susceptibility.

The paper shows that Ih-induced membrane potential depolarization maintains the dynamic range of voltage-dependent gap junction signaling in electrical synapses.

This study shows that inhibitory interneurons influence the initiation of cortical spreading depression by affecting pyramidal cell spike block through dynamic ion concentration changes.
