  2. Inhibitory postsynaptic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhibitory_postsynaptic...

    The results showed that both compound and unitary inhibitory postsynaptic potentials are amplified by dendritic calcium ion channels. The width of a somatic IPSP is independent of the distance between the soma and the synapse whereas the rise time increases with this distance. These IPSPs also regulate theta rhythms in pyramidal cells.

    The 2024 Spielberg Formula 2 round was a motor racing event held between 28 and 30 June 2024 at the Red Bull Ring. It was the seventh round of the 2024 Formula 2 Championship and was held in support of the 2024 Austrian Grand Prix .

  4. Postsynaptic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postsynaptic_potential

    When an ion channel opens and there is a net gain of positively charged ions, like sodium (Na +) and calcium (Ca 2+), that flow into the cell, this creates excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP) that depolarize the cell membrane increasing the likelihood of an action potential by bringing the neuron's potential closer to its firing threshold ...

  5. Synaptic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_potential

    Graph showing the effects of EPSPs and IPSPs on membrane potential. Synaptic potential refers to the potential difference across the postsynaptic membrane that results from the action of neurotransmitters at a neuronal synapse. [1] In other words, it is the “incoming” signal that a neuron receives.

  6. Graded potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graded_potential

    Graded potentials that make the membrane potential more negative, and make the postsynaptic cell less likely to have an action potential, are called inhibitory post synaptic potentials (IPSPs). Hyperpolarization of membranes is caused by influx of Cl − or efflux of K +. As with EPSPs, the amplitude of the IPSP is directly proportional to the ...

  7. Pyramidal cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramidal_cell

    Pyramidal neurons are also one of two cell types where the characteristic sign, Negri bodies, are found in post-mortem rabies infection. [2] Pyramidal neurons were first discovered and studied by Santiago Ramón y Cajal. [3] [4] Since then, studies on pyramidal neurons have focused on topics ranging from neuroplasticity to cognition.

  8. Summation (neurophysiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_(neurophysiology)

    Basic ways that neurons can interact with each other when converting input to output. Summation, which includes both spatial summation and temporal summation, is the process that determines whether or not an action potential will be generated by the combined effects of excitatory and inhibitory signals, both from multiple simultaneous inputs (spatial summation), and from repeated inputs ...

  9. Electrotonic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrotonic_potential

    Electrotonic potentials which decrease the membrane potential are called inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs). They hyperpolarize the membrane and make it harder for a cell to have an action potential. IPSPs are associated with Cl − entering the cell or K + leaving the cell. IPSPs can interact with EPSPs to "cancel out" their effect. [2]
