These findings are congruent with the genetic association of bipolar with CACNAC1, an L-type calcium channel, [101] as well as the efficacy of anti-epileptic agents. [106] Normal platelets placed in plasma from people with bipolar disorder do not demonstrate elevated levels of intracellular calcium, indicating that dysfunction lies intracellularly.
P-type calcium channel ("Purkinje") /Q-type calcium channel: HVA (high voltage activated) Ca v 2.1 : α 2 δ, β, possibly γ: Purkinje neurons in the cerebellum / Cerebellar granule cells: N-type calcium channel ("Neural"/"Non-L") HVA (high voltage activated) Ca v 2.2 : α 2 δ/β 1, β 3, β 4, possibly γ: Throughout the brain and peripheral ...
The hyfrecator does not require a dispersive return pad, referred-to in the electrosurgery field as a "ground pad," or "patient plate," because the hyfrecator can pass a very low-powered current between forceps tips via bipolar output, or pass an A.C. current between one pointed metal electrode probe and the patient, with the patient's self ...
Forms terms denoting conditions relating to eating or ingestion Greek φαγία (phagía) eating < φᾰγεῖν (phageîn), to eat Sarcophagia-phago-eating, devouring Greek -φᾰ́γος (-phágos), eater of, eating phagocyte: phagist-Forms nouns that denote a person who 'feeds on' the first element or part of the word
Because voltage is by definition a bipolar measurement between two points, describing an electrocardiographic lead as "unipolar" makes little sense electrically and should be avoided. The American Heart Association states "All leads are effectively 'bipolar,' and the term 'unipolar' in description of the augmented limb leads and the precordial ...
Bipolar cells receive synaptic input from either rods or cones, or both rods and cones, though they are generally designated rod bipolar or cone bipolar cells. There are roughly 10 distinct forms of cone bipolar cells, however, only one rod bipolar cell, due to the rod receptor arriving later in the evolutionary history than the cone receptor ...
Bipolar disorder, previously known as manic depression or manic depressive disorder, is a mental disorder characterized by periods of depression and periods of abnormally elevated mood that each last from days to weeks.
A bipolar neuron, or bipolar cell, is a type of neuron characterized by having both an axon and a dendrite extending from the soma (cell body) in opposite directions. These neurons are predominantly found in the retina and olfactory system. [ 1 ]
