Genetic defects affecting tiny channels in human nerve cells lead to several neurological diseases that result from aberrant nerve transmission, such as episodic ataxia, absence epilepsy, and ...

WHEN nerve impulses bring about the development of tension in a muscle, depolarization of the muscle fibre membranes can be observed. The question arises: Is this depolarization directly responsible ...

Figure 1: Afterhyperpolarization at the calyx reduces the Prob AP at the axon. The afterhyperpolarization also occurred after trains at 10–20 Hz (20–100 action potentials; Fig. 1i), which could also ...
