The Different Mechanisms of Action Potential Propagation in the Heart
It was thought previously that cardiac muscle gap junctions provide low-resistance connections between cells and permit the local-circuit current to flow. Some evidences show that myocardial cells may not require low-resistance connections for successful propagation of the action potential (AP). It seems that some other types of mechanisms must be involved in AP propagation. In this article, we...

متن کاملIonic mechanisms maintaining action potential conduction velocity at high firing frequencies in an unmyelinated axon
The descending contralateral movement detector (DCMD) is a high-performance interneuron in locusts with an axon capable of transmitting action potentials (AP) at more than 500 Hz. We investigated biophysical mechanisms for fidelity of high-frequency transmission in this axon. We measured conduction velocities (CVs) at room temperature during exposure to 10 mmol/L cadmium, a calcium current anta...
متن کاملMechanisms of peripheral neuropathic pain: implications for musculoskeletal physiotherapy
Physiotherapy has long been part of the overall intervention for the attempted rehabilitation of patients with pain and disability following peripheral (and central) nerve damage. In musculoskeletal physiotherapy (a subspecialty), a movement-based assessment and treatment protocol has been devised that is guided by, among other things, therapists’ perceptions of patients’ responses to mechanica...
