text: The stimulus selectivity of synaptic currents in cortical neurons often shows
a co-tuning of excitation and inhibition, but the mechanisms that underlie the
emergence and plasticity of this co-tuning are not fully understood. Using a computational
model, we show that an interaction of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic plasticity
reproduces both the developmental and – when combined with a disinhibitory gate
– the adult plasticity of excitatory and inhibitory receptive fields in auditory
cortex. The co-tuning arises from inhibitory plasticity that balances excitation
and inhibition, while excitatory stimulus selectivity can result from two different
mechanisms. Inhibitory inputs with a broad stimulus tuning introduce a sliding
threshold as in Bienenstock-Cooper-Munro rules, introducing an excitatory stimulus
selectivity at the cost of a broader inhibitory receptive field. Alternatively,
input asymmetries can be amplified by synaptic competition. The latter leaves
any receptive field plasticity transient, a prediction we verify in recordings
in auditory cortex.
