Several studies with brain signals suggested that bottom-up and top-down influences are exerted through distinct frequency bands among visual cortical areas. It has been recently shown that theta and gamma rhythms subserve feedforward, whereas the feedback influence is dominated by the alpha-beta rhythm in primates. A few theoretical models for reproducing these effects have been proposed so far. Here we show that a simple but biophysically plausible two-network motif composed of spiking-neuron models and chemical synapses can exhibit feedforward and feedback influences through distinct frequency bands. Differently from previous studies, this kind of model allows us to study directed influences not only at the population level, by using a proxy for the local field potential, but also at the cellular level, by using the neuronal spiking series.
