Q

four changes by 2ed messenger system ?

A

— 1. Opening specific ion channels through the postsynaptic cell membrane( K+ mostly)
2. Activation of cAMP , cGMP (alters long-term excitability of the neuron.)
3. Activation of one or more intracellular enzymes
4. Activation of gene transcription

Q

How Excitation occur ?

A
  1. Opening of sodium channels
  2. changes in the internal metabolism of the post-synaptic neuron to excite cell activity
  3. Depressed conduction through chloride or potassium channels, or both
