Action potential amplification by EPSPs was even ... provides a sensitive mechanism linking the global activity of the neuron to activity of specific sets of synaptic inputs, and so is ideally ...

Our knowledge of the structure of voltage-dependent K + (Kv) channels, which shape the neuronal action potential, has come largely from studies of prokaryotic channels, which can be expressed at ...

The field of neuroscience has long been intrigued by the complex dynamics of neurons in the cerebral cortex, particularly the transformation of synaptic ...

In order for a neuron to transmit its own signal, it must first be sufficiently activated by incoming signals from other neurons via its dendrites. Then, an action potential is generated in its ...
