ABSTRACT
We summarize evidence that input to the apical tufts of neocortical pyramidal cells modulates their response to basal input. Because this apical amplification and disamplification provide intracortical mechanisms for prioritization, Mather and colleagues' arguments suggest that their effects are enhanced by noradrenergic arousal. Though that is likely, it has not yet been adequately studied. Their article shows that it should be.
