A research team led by Prof. Wan Yinhua from the Institute of Process Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative condition that affects a significant proportion of older people ...

The potential recorded by a set of electrodes as an action potential traverses a small axonal segment is proportional to the transmembrane potential produced during stimulation of that axon segment by ...

Foust, A.J., Yu, Y., Popovic, M., Zecevic, D. and McCormick, D.A. (2011) Somatic Membrane Potential and Kv1 Channels Control Spike Repolarization in Cortical Axon Collaterals and Presynaptic Boutons.

Axon Enterprise, Inc. engages in the development, manufacture, and sale of conducted electrical weapons for personal defense. It operates through the TASER Weapons and Software and Sensors segments.

The speed of the action potential isn’t constant, they assert, but modulated by changes in the size of the nano-pearls, which in turn are caused by mechanical changes in the axon’s membrane and ...

Abstract Membrane mechanics dictate axonal pearls-on-a-string morphology and function Axons are ultrathin membrane cables that are specialized for the conduction of action potentials. Although their ...

Myelin is the fatty membranes of cells called Oligodendroglia (in the CNS) and Schwann Cells (in the PNS) that wraps around the axon and acts as an insulator, preventing the dissipation of the ...

The process starts when a signal, also called an action potential, is sent from the neuron's cell body towards the axon. Along the surface of the axon membrane are channels that allow ions like sodium ...
