In neurons, action potentials play a central role in cell–cell communication by providing for—or with regard to saltatory conduction, assisting—the propagation of signals along the neuron's …

One recognizable phenotype is that of fast-spiking neurons, which are capable of firing steadily at high frequencies and have narrow action potentials. This phenotype is typical of many...

2023年11月3日 · An action potential is caused by either threshold or suprathreshold stimuli upon a neuron. It consists of three phases: depolarization, overshoot, and repolarization. An action …

2012年5月18日 · Synchronous spiking of nearby neurons is the main source of the high-frequency components of the local field. There is a discernable relationship between the temporal …

Spikes are the mechanism that allow neurons to pass information over relatively long distances within themselves. Thus a mechanosensory neuron at the tip of a flipper in a blue whale has to …

2023年9月18日 · During an action potential, the recorded waveforms depend on neuronal morphology, spike initiation site, and the relative position of the electrodes and the subcellular …

2023年11月9日 · Ectopic action potentials (EAPs) were initially observed in pathological conditions including seizures and nerve injury. Several studies have described regular-spiking …

In neurons, voltage-gated sodium conductances play an essential role in action potential initiation and propagation (Hodgkin and Huxley, 1952). Voltage-gated sodium channels activate and …

Neuroscientists often refer to action potentials as ‘spikes’, or say a neuron has ‘fired a spike’ or ‘spiked’. The term is a reference to the shape of an action potential as recorded using …

2020年4月27日 · Here we report full-field imaging of cellular deformations accompanying the action potential in mammalian neuron somas (−1.8 to 1.4 nm) and neurites (−0.7 to 0.9 nm), …
