showed that local circuit currents from an excited region Our ability todo gymnastics, to perceive a colorful world, of nerve are needed to bring the next region into activity. and to process language relies on rapid communication This meant that depolarization is the natural stimulus among neurons. Such signaling, the fastest in our bodfor action potential propagation. J. Z. Young (1936) reies...
متن کاملO 13: Ion Channels in Autoimmune Neurodegeneration
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by widespread inflammation, focal demyelination and a variable degree of axonal and neuronal loss. Ionic conductances regulate T cell activation as well as neuronal function and thus have been found to play a crucial role in MS pathogenesis. Since present therapeutical approaches are only parti...
متن کاملBacterial ion channels and their eukaryotic homologues.
Due to the relative ease of obtaining their crystal structures, bacterial ion channels provide a unique opportunity to analyse structure and function of their eukaryotic homologues. This review describes prokaryotic channels whose structures have been determined. These channels are KcsA, a bacterial homologue of eukaryotic potassium channels, MscL, a bacterial mechanosensitive ion channel and C...
متن کاملA Review on Bacterial Communities and Communication
Bacteria, one of the smallest organisms to inhabit the Earth, have some of the largest ecological impacts on their communities. They interact with plants, animals, and other bacteria. Bacteria can be printed using 3D printing methods that recombine different traits of different bacteria. Connell and his research team printed Staphylococcus aureus with a Psuedomonas aeruginosa shell, increasing ...
