Ionic Conductance(s) in Response to Post-junctional Potentials
The gastrointestinal motility is regulated by extrinsic and intrinsic neural regulation. Intrinsic neural pathways are controlled by sensory input, inter-neuronal relay and motor output. Enteric motor neurons release many transmitters which affect post-junctional responses. Post-junctional responses can be excitatory and inhibitory depending on neurotransmitters. Excitatory neurotransmitters in...
متن کاملQuantized ionic conductance in nanopores.
Ionic transport in nanopores is a fundamentally and technologically important problem in view of its occurrence in biological processes and its impact on novel DNA sequencing applications. Using molecular dynamics simulations we show that ion transport may exhibit strong nonlinearities as a function of the pore radius reminiscent of the conductance quantization steps as a function of the transv...
متن کاملSelf-modeling structure of evoked postsynaptic potentials.
With the simplicity of the synaptic structure and physiology at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) of crayfish and the given transmitter being released in quantal packets, a detailed assessment in the fundamental processes of chemical synaptic transmission is possible. Since the quantal event is the basic element of transmission, we consider an approach to further understand the characteristics of ...
متن کاملReduced ionic conductance in turtle brain.
Whole cell recording techniques were employed to measure whole cell (Gw) and specific membrane (Gm) conductance in turtle and rat pyramidal neurons in slices. Results indicate that rat neurons are 4.2 times more conductive compared with turtle neurons at 25 degrees C, which is accentuated by temperature, so that rat neurons at 37 degrees C are 22 times more conductive than turtle neurons at 15 ...
متن کاملDehydration and ionic conductance quantization in nanopores.
There has been tremendous experimental progress in the last decade in identifying the structure and function of biological pores (ion channels) and fabricating synthetic pores. Despite this progress, many questions still remain about the mechanisms and universal features of ionic transport in these systems. In this paper, we examine the use of nanopores to probe ion transport and to construct f...
