  Previous studies and experiments have been showed that elevated K+ concentration in the extracellular space can induce pathological discharge activities, such as epilepsy [1].The inward rectifier potassium channels (Kir4.1) in brain astrocytes is crucial for the maintenance of the extracellular potassium buffering [2].Therefore, studying the relations between kir4.1 channels and discharge activities through theoretical analysis methods will provide a strong guidance for understanding normal activities of the brain and treating epilepsy.This paper simulates the effect of the kir4.1 channels blocker by setting the kir4.1 current is equal to zero approximately.Our model reproduces several phenomena observed experimentally: Firstly, in contrast to control condition,long-lasting stimulation will induce the pronounced undershoot of the extracellular potassium concentration.Moreover, we found that K+ concentration in the extracellular space takes longer period to return to baseline after stimulation as kir4.1 channels is blocked.Furthermore, K+ concentration baseline in astrocyte is higher and it rises more slowly to a lower peak value compared with control condition.These results are all in good qualitative agreement with the experiments of [3;4].In addition, our results confirm the vital role of kir4.1 channels for extracellular potassium buffering by glia.

在生态相似的种群中,对于有限资源的竞争行为一直是生物学家、生态学家等普遍关心的一个重要问题。从生物的角度来看,在现实世界中,种群系统不可避免地受到环境噪声的影响,例如,种群出生率往往会受到环境噪声的干扰。因此,为子更加准确地描述这样的系统,一些学者引入子Brown运动,由此而产生的Brown运动驱动的竞争Lotka-Volterra模型的解的性质被大量研究,包括全局正解的存在性与唯一性、持久性,灭
