25
what is electrochemical equilibrium?
a balance between the concentration gradient that makes an ion want to diffuse across the membrane and the electrical gradient that stops the ion from leaving the cell
26
how to prove that increased permeability is responsible for the depolarization of the membrane?
put a neuron in a solution with varying levels of Na+ concentration RESULT: find that the spike height of the action potential depends on how high the external Na+ concentration is
27
how does Ohm's law explain the rush of Na+ ions into a cell during an action potential?
Ohm's law is voltage = current * resistance resistance is the inverse of conductance (which is just permeability) --> so permeability is the inverse of resistance Therefore, current = voltage * permeability I(ion) = g(ion) * (Vm - E(ion)) g is conductance, I is current so the rate that Na+ flows across the membrane is a product of its membrane permeability and electrochemical driving force
28
the sequence of an action potential
1. Na+ ions enter the cell, causing it to depolarize 2. voltage-gated ion channels open, causing Na+ to flood in 3. the depolarization moves across the axon, and as it moves the voltage-gated sodium channels close and the K+ channels open (these channels stay open for longer, causing overshoot) 4. all channels are closed and RMP is reestablished *K+ channels are slower
29
how does the voltage clamp method work?
it shows the current required to hold a certain voltage (holds the membrane at a certain voltage and see how the cell responds) when its held at highly positive voltages, there's a high moment of Na+ conductance and longer increased concentrations of K+
30
which are faster, ion channels or active transporters?
ion channels, bc diffusing down concentration gradient. Ion channels are passive
31
why must active transporters always be working to maintain the membrane voltage?
1. has to go back to normal after neural signaling 2. there is continual leakage at rest, need ATPase pumps to respond accordingly
32
what are the gating mechanisms of ion channels?
1. ligand gated 2. temperature dependent 3. g-protein signaling 4. voltage gated
33
what is distinct at the structure of a Cl channel?
its a dimer (two molecules linked together) with two pores
34
how many genes are in each channel of a Na+, Ca2+, K+ and Cl- ion?
Na+, Ca2+, and K+ all have four Cl- has two
35
what is cell-attached recording?
what: tight contact between pipette and membrane use: allows accurate measurement of the current flowing through one of a few channels in the patch, can even sometimes just look at a single channel
36
what is whole cell recording?
what: tears a hole in membrane, where the cytoplasm is continuous with pipette interior (has strong suction to keep it in place) use: allows the voltage of the cell to be measured of controlled
37
what is inside-out recording?
what: cuts a piece of membrane off at two points, exposes it to air use: makes the inside cytoplasmic domain accessible, can see how the outside of the cell responds via pipette
38
what is outside-out recording?
what: tears off membrane at two points, then reattaches where the inside is facing the inside of the pipette use: makes the extracellular domain accessible, can see how the inside of the cell responds via pipette
39
when will a voltage-gated ion channel open?
its more likely to open at higher voltages, but its also a probability
40
how does the selectivity filter select for K+ ions in K+ channels?
K+ ions are dehydrated when they pass through the filter and are pushed through by electrostatic repulsion 4 protein loops around poor line the walls, carbonyl groups on the poor interact with the unsolvated K+ ion, balancing energy requried to remove its hydration cell
41
why couldn't a sodium ion travel through a K+ channel?
its too small and t/f energetically unfavorable
42
stages of a sodium channel
1. closed 2. open 3. inactivating 4. inactivated 5. closed *important note, it inactivates while the voltage is still depolarized, bc refactory period
43
how does the inactivation of the Na+ channel work?
1. only 3 of the 4 sensing domains are required to open the Na+ channel 2. the fourth Na+ channel is the slowest one and is tied to inactivation of the channel
44
why does the K+ channel take longer to open than the Na+ channel?
it requires all four voltage sensing domains to be activated, while Na+ only requires three
45
what are channelopathies?
neurological disease caused by altered ion channels
46
what is ataxia?
the loss of voluntary motor movement, caused by altered K+ channels and Ca2+ channels
47
what is optogenetics?

48
benefits of optogenetics
bidirectional (can hyperpolarize and depolarize) ex. yellow light is inhibitory
49
what is the difference between a chemical and electrical synapse?
a chemical synapse is slower and the ap is spread to the postsynaptic neuron via neurotransmitters, whereas an electrical synapse is much faster and activated via connexon channels (a type of ion channel at the gap junction)
50
what is one of the few CNS spaces that utilizes electrical synapses?
hippocampal interneurons
51
connexon - # subunits - how it allows molecules to cross
- 6 subunits - passive flow through gap junction, large pores that allow ions, ATP, and second messengers
52
general sequence of events at a chemical synapse
1. neurotransmitters stored in vesicles 2. an action potential invades the synaptic cleft 3. the depolarization opens Ca2+ voltage-gated channels 4. the invasion of Ca2+ causes the vesicles to fuse with the membrane 5. neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft via exocytosis 6. the neurotransmitters send inhibitory or excitatory signals to post synaptic neuron 7. neurotransmitters are reuptaken by a glial cell or by enzymatic degragation 8. retrieval of vesicular membrane from plasma membrane
53
what is an end plate potential?
a chemically induced change in electrical voltage measured at the neuromuscular junction. an electrode is inserted at the endplate to see how the release of neurotransmitters at the presynaptic neuron affecs the postsynaptic neuron depolarization/ hyperpolarization
54
how did we discover that chemical transmission was a thing?
1. heart experiment: put a heart in a solution and stimulated the vagus nerve electrically, whatever was around that heart went to another heart and caused the rate of beats to slow down, proving that there's a physical substance excreted by the neurons (later discovered as acetylcholine) 2. did electrophysical pictures that showed neurotransmitters in vesicle pockets 3. recorded end plate potential of frog neuromuscular junction, found that stimulating the axon led to a post synaptic membrane potential, when the EPP exceeded threshold
55
proving MEPP occur spontaneously
when a cell is in a Ca2+ deprived bath, still have MEPP recorded, showing that its spontaneous
56
what is the relationship between a MEPP and EPP?
there is a direct 1:1 relationship, showing that a postsynaptic cell is directly stimulated via neurotransmitter vesicles (organized in quantals) STUDY: following the stimulus by low Ca2+, the distribution of EPP is consistent with amplitudes of MEPP's
57
why do we know that Ca2+ entry is required for transmitter release?
STUDY: control (w Ca2+) vs. Ca2+ channel blocker when the blocker is in place (cadmium), there is no post-synaptic membrane potential in the control (with Na+ and K+ channels blocked, a depolarizing post-synaptic membrane potential is still recorded)
58
why is Ca2+ necessary and sufficient?
proved that it affects the postsynaptic potential proved that in the absence of Ca2+ there is no postsynaptic potential
59
small molecule neurotransmitter vs. large dense core vesicles
small molecules are in small clear-core vesicles and only require low frequency stimulations and localized increase in Ca2+ concentration large dense neuropeptide vesicles require high frequency stimulation and a more diffuse increase in Ca2+ concentration
60
what does SNARE proteins do?
SNARE is SNap REceptor they help the vesicle dock and form a complex that sits the vesicle on the membrane the complex is made of synaptobrevin, syntaxin, and SNAP-25
61
what does Synaptotagmin do?
entering Ca2+ binds to synaptotagmin that hands off the vesicle, leading to curvature of the membrane to bring them together --> fusion of the membrane leads to exocytotic release of neurotransmitter
62
what are synapsins for?
holds the reserve pool together in preparation of release to membrane what would happen without synapsin: vesicles wouldn't be ready for release, unable to transfer ap across cleft, more improbably system
63
what is CaMKII for?
phosphorylates synapsin to help move vesicles from release poll to docking what would happen without CaMKII: vesicles would be stuck in the reserve pool
64
what is syntaxin for?
is on the membrane, binds with synaptobrevin on the vesicle to faciliate docking what would happen without syntaxin: vesicles couldn't dock on membrane and release neurotransmitters
65
what does clathrin do?
coats membrane to allow for curvature, facilitating dynamin-induced separation of the membrane to replenish vesicles what would happen without it: there would be insufficient replenishment of vesicles, bc couldn't pull them from membrane
66
what does dynamin do?
constricts the neck of the membrane to replenish vesicle supply what would happen without it: there would be insufficient replenishment of vesicles, bc couldn't pull them from membrane
67
what does synaptobrevin do?
part of SNARE complex that facilitates docking what would happen without synaptobrevin: the vesicle wouldn't be able to dock and thus release neurotransmitters into membrane
68
which are t-SNARE?
syntaxin and SNAP-25
69
which are v-SNARE
Synaptobrevin
70
how does BoTX affect neurotransmitter release?

72
what causes the end plate potential?
the opening of ligand-gated acetylcholine receptors
73
does the postsynaptic membrane potential affect the end plate current?
when the post synaptic potential is negative, an EPC makes it more negative, whereas when its positive, after a certain point the current reverses direction back to 0 this demonstrates the reverse potential the action of a neurotransmitter drives the postsynaptic membrane potential towards Erev for the particular ion channel being activated
74
how to utilize Ohm's law to find the reversal potential?
EPC = g * (Vm - Erev) when EPC is 0, changes direction g = ionic conductance of molecule Erev = electrochemical driving force
75
when does the molecule have an outward and inward current on an amplitude graph of Erev?
above 0 its a strong outward current and below 0 is a strong inward current
76
is membrane potential the same thing as voltage?
yes
77
how does Erev of a particular ion affect the postsynaptic potential?
based on the potential of the postsynaptic neuron, the voltage is either driven up or down by the released ions, as they drive towards their Erev levels
78
when is a neurotransmitter excitatory?
when the channel being driven releases ions who's Erev is above threshold *a current that brings the PSMP to be more positive can still be inhibitory if its reversal potential is still below threshold
79
how do peptide neurotransmitters reach the synapse?
they're synthesized in the cell body and transported via axonal transport

1973 STUDY, found that in vivo reserach on rabbits in hippocampus found that greater stimulation altered the later response (greater ESPC)
137
how is LTP molecularly formed?
when there is a strong influx of depolarization, at glutamatergic receptors there's a great influx of glutamate, activating the AMPA and NMDA receptors especially, this activation leads to the downstream affects of NMDA, which is influx of Ca2+, Ca2+ binds with calmodulin and CamKII and helps transcribe more AMPA receptors
