Neural backpropagation

Neural phenomenon

Neural backpropagation is the phenomenon in which, after the action potential of a neuron creates a voltage spike down the axon, another impulse is generated from the soma and propagates towards the apical portions of the dendritic arbor or dendrites. In addition to active backpropagation of the action potential, there is also passive electrotonic spread. While there is ample evidence to prove the existence of backpropagating action potentials, the function of such action potentials and the extent to which they invade the most distal dendrites remain highly controversial.
