Changes to single ionic current properties, as well as application of known episodic ataxia type~1 associated \Kv mutations showed consistent effects on the rheobase across cell types, whereas the effects on AUC of the steady-state fi-curve depend on cell type. Our results demonstrate that LOF and GOF on the biophysical level cannot be uniquely transfered to the level of neuronal firing. The effects depend on the properties of the other currents expressed in a cell and are therefore depending on cell type. +To compare the effects of changes to properties of ionic currents on neuronal firing of different neuron types, a diverse set of conductance-based models were simulated.

For a known channelopathy, episodic ataxia type~1 associated \Kv mutations, the effects on rheobase are consistent across model cell types, whereas the effects on AUC depend on cell type.
