45
Q

two factors influencing membrane potential

A

1) uneven distribition of ions across cell membrane (more potassium leak channels than sodium leak channels)
2) different membrane permeability to those ions (K+ > Na+)

46
Q

three requirements for establishing membrane potential

A

1) ICF and ECF must differ significantly in ionic concentration
–> ECF = more Na+
–> ICF = more K+

2) selectively permeable through channels
–> more permeable to K+ because there is more leak channels

3) the cells passive and active transport ensure an unequal distribution of charges across its membrane

47
Q

how does membrane potential develop?

A
  • the plasma membrane is more permeable to K+ than Na+
  • K+ in the ICF wants to flow out (high to low), and does so faster than Na+ from the ECF flows in
  • the outward movement of K+ exceeds the inward movement of Na+ which causes the cell to become more negative (because +ve charge leaves)
  • the difference in charge across the membrane results in the membrane potential
48
Q

what is resting membrane potential?

A
  • is -70mV (inside relative to outside)
  • occurs when K+ outflow slows down and Na+ inward flow speeds up, and eventually causes the membrane potential to stabilize
  • this happens because an electrical force is created when the membrane potential becomes negative inside the cell, and attracts the Na+ positive ions (located in ECF) into the cell faster than K+ move out due to concentration gradient
  • eventually, the movement of sodium into the cell is equal and opposite to the movement of potassium out of the cell, and reaches a steady state
49
Q

what does resting membrane potential depend on?

A

1) ratio of concentrations of K+ and Na+ on either side of the membrane (concentration gradients)
2) specific membrane permeability to each ion through the membrane

50
Q

passive forces acting across the membrane

A
  • chemical gradients = concentration gradients of Na+ and K+
  • electrical gradients = separate charges of +ve and -ive ions resulting in potential difference across the membrane
51
Q

what is equilibrium potential?

A

the transmembrane potential when there is no net movement of an ion across the cell membrane

52
Q

active forces acting across the cell membrane

A
  • sodium/potassium ATPase (pump)
    –> active transport using ATP helps ensure the resting potential is maintained
    –> the goal is to maintain a steep gradient for Na+ and K+
    –> balances passive forces of diffusion
    –> moves 3 Na+ out and 2 K+ in
53
Q

what is a graded potential?

A
  • small electrical impulses that helps communicate over short distances
  • a result of small changes in membrane potential that occur when ion channels open or close in response to a stimulus
  • magnitude depends on strength of stimulus (not all or nothing)
54
Q

definitions to describe the changes in membrane potential

A

hyperpolarization = K+ channels open and potassium moves out of the cell, making the membrane potential more negative
depolarization = Na+ channels open and sodium moves into the cell, making the membrane potential more positive

55
Q

what is hyperpolarization?

A

when the membrane becomes more polarized, and changes to a more negative value than -70mV

56
Q

depolarization

A

when the membrane becomes less polarized and changes to change to a less negative or to a positive potential

57
Q

repolarization

A

occurs when the membrane potential returns to the resting membrane potential following a depolarization

58
Q

2 ways cells communicate

A
  • graded potentials
  • action potentials
59
Q

graded vs action potentials

A

graded = small electrical signals that act over short ranges because they diminish in size with distance

action = large signals capable of traveling long distances without decreasing in size.

60
Q

what is a subthreshold graded potential?

A
  • a graded potential starts above the threshold (T) at its initiation point but decreases in strength as it travels through the cell body
  • at the trigger zone, it is below threshold and doesn’t produce an action potential
61
Q

what is a suprathreshold graded potential?

A
  • a stronger stimulus on the cell body creates a graded potential above the threshold (T) by the time it reaches its initiation point
  • an action potential results
62
Q

what is the significance of graded potentials?

A
  • they determine whether a cell will generate an action potential
  • graded potentials generate action potentials if they depolarize a neuron to the threshold (a value of membrane potential that must be met or exceeded if an action potential is to be generated)
63
Q

3 stages of an action potential

A

1) rapid depolarization
- the membrane potential changes from -70mV to +30mV due to sudden permeability to sodium into the cell

2) repolarization
- membrane potential returns from +30mV back to resting levels (-)70mV
- the sodium permeability decreases rapidly and potassium permeability increases

3) after-hyperpolarization
- potassium permeability remains elevated for a brief time after the membrane potential reaches the resting membrane potential
- during this time, the membrane potential becomes even more negative

64
Q

what does propogation of action potential mean?

A

the movement of an action potential along the entire length of an axon

65
Q

propagation of an action potential

A

1) an initial stimulus (could be heat, pressure etc.) that triggers the nerve impulse.
2) if the initial stimulus is strong enough, a graded depolarization of axon hillock occurs which is large enough to change resting potential from -70mV to -55mV. this causes the cell to meet a critical level (-55mV) which opens gated sodium ion channels.
3) the sodium ions rush into the cell and causes an increase in the membrane potential (more positive)
4.) the change in charge (the electrical current) travels down the axon which connects the graded potential with the synaptic axon terminal, where it can communicate with the next nerve cell.
5.) causes the nerve cell to be “excited” and prepared to pass the message

66
Q

types of gates in Na+ channels

A

1) activation gate: opening of sodium channel during the depolarization phase of an action potential
2) inactivation gate: closing of sodium channels during the repolarization phase of an action potential.

67
Q

how do voltage gated Na+ channels work?

A
  • at resting membrane potential (-70mV), the activation gate closes the channel
  • the activation gate opens by a depolarizing stimulus arriving at the channel
  • when the gate opens, Na+ enters the cell and causes depolarization (+30mV)
  • the inactivation gate closes and prevents further entry of Na+ into the cell.
  • Potassium channels open and K+ leaves the cell causing repolarization, and the the activation and inactivation gate reset to their original position
68
Q

how do voltage-gated K+ channels work?

A
  • at resting membrane potential (-70mV), the K+ channels are closed. they remain closed until depolarization occurs due to the influx of Na+ ions into the cell.
  • as the membrane potential becomes more positive during depolarization, voltage-gated K+ channels open and allow K+ ions to move out of the cell.
  • the outward flow of K+ ions repolarizes the membrane, bringing it back to a negative potential and restore it to resting potential
  • once the membrane potential returns to rest, the voltage-gated K+ channels close and prevents further outward flow of potassium ions
69
Q

all-or-none action potential principle

A

if a stimulus exceeds threshold amount…
–> the action potential is the same regardless of how large the stimulus from graded potential is
–> the strength of graded potential initiating AP has no influence on amplitude of AP
–> if the membrane is not depolarized to threshold, no action potential occurs

the key is that an action potential is either triggered or not

70
Q

what is the absolute refractory period?

A
  • occurs during the depolarization + repolarization phase of an action potential
  • ensures that a a second action potential cannot be generated in response to a second stimulus
  • it is caused by the voltage gated sodium channels being inactivated
71
Q

what is relative refractory period?

A
  • occurs during the hyper-polarization phase of an action potential
  • a second action potential could be initiated, but requires a large stimulus than before
  • occurs when potassium channels open and there is outward diffusion of K+
72
Q

two methods of propagating an action potential

A

1) continuous propagation: in unmyelinated axons
2) saltatory propagation: in myelinated axons

73
Q

what is continuous propagation?

A
  • after an action potential fires, the Na+ influx causes depolarization (+) of an adjacent region of the axon = a new action potential to occur
  • the process repeats along the axon and the action potential amplitude is the same
74
Q

steps to continuous propogation of an action potential

A

1) a graded potential above threshold reaches the trigger zone
2) voltage gated Na+ channels open and they enter the axon
3) the positive charge flows into adjacent sections of the axon via local current flow
4) local current flow from the active region causes new section of the membrane to depolarize (become more positive)
5) the refractory period prevents backward conduction. K+ leaves the cytoplasm of the cell an repolarizes the membrane (more negative)

this process continues over and over again until the action potential is produced at the axon terminal

75
Q

what factors affect action potential speed?

A
  • diameter of the axon (larger = faster)
  • resistance to ion leakage (leak resistant = faster)
  • myelination (limit contact with ECF, less chance of leakage)
76
Q

what is saltatory propagation?

A
  • action potentials occur at node of Ranvier (has voltage gated channels) and leap to adjacent nodes until reaching the axon terminal.
  • works similarly to continuous propagation
    –> this is due to myelin sheath preventing Na+ and K+ from going in/out of the cell due to high resistance
77
Q

what is faster: saltatory or continuous propogation

A

saltatory propagation is faster
–> thick myelinated axons is better than thin, unmyelinated axon

78
Q

80
Q

synaptic cleft

A

81
Q

what is an electrical synapse?

A
  • when an electrical signal is passed directly from the cytoplasm of one cell to the cytoplasm of another via gap junctions
  • can occur between neurons or neurons and glial cells
  • can be excitatory (increase activity) or inhibitory (decrease activity)
82
Q

how does an electrical synapses take place?

A
  • the cells are physically connected by a gap junction (often bidirectional)
  • when an electrical signal occurs in one cell, it can be passed to the other via ions rapidly passing between cells
83
Q

what is chemical synapses?

A
  • a signal is transmitted across a gap by chemical neurotransmitters
  • the cells are not in direct contact
  • most neurons use chemical synapses
84
Q

how does chemical synapses work?

A
  • a neuron secretes a neurotransmitter into the ECF in response to an action potential arriving at its axon terminal
  • the neurotransmitter binds to receptors on the plasma membrane of a second cell
  • this triggers an electrical signal that may/may not initiate an action potential in the second cell
85
Q

what does chemical synapses depend on?

A
  • type and amount of neurotransmitter released
  • the sensitivity of the post-synaptic cell (receiving the signal)
86
Q

what are the steps to chemical synapses occurring?

A

1) an action potential arrives at the end of the axon terminal
2) voltage gated Ca2+ channels open and move into the presynaptic cell
3) the influx of Ca2+ signals the synaptic vesicles to move to the presynaptic membrane and fuse (exocytosis)
4) once the vesicle fuses, they release their contents (the neurotransmitter)
5) the neurotransmitters diffuses across the cleft and bind to the receptors on the post-synaptic neuron membrane
5) a response is generated

87
Q

what do neurotransmitters do after being released for chemical synapses?

A
  • after being released the neurotransmitter cannot remain in the synaptic cleft
  • so enzymes degrade them and terminate the signal
  • some neurotransmitters are actively transported back into the presynaptic cell (usually are broken down and recycled)
88
Q

types of signal transduction at chemical synapses

A

1) fast response = ionotropic receptor
2) slow response = metabotropic receptor (direct coupling or linked with a second messenger)

89
Q

what is a ionotropic receptor?

A
  • a ligand-gated channel
  • allows for a fast response/ signal transduction in chemical synapses
90
Q

how does an ionotropic channel work?

A

-a neurotransmitter binds to the channel in the synaptic clef and allows specific ions to permiate the plasma membrane
- causes a change in electrical properties of the post-synaptic neuron

91
Q

what is a metobotropic receptor?

A
  • a protein linked receptor
  • using a coupling mechanism with an ion channel
  • slower response/signal transduction in chemical synapses
92
Q

how does a metobotropic receptor work?

A
  • a neurotransmitter binds to the receptor which activates a G protein
    –> in direct coupling, the G protein opens or closes an ion channel
    –> in a second messenger system, the G protein activates or inhibits an enzyme that produces a second messenger, which either opens or closes the ion channel

100
Q

steps to synthesis and recycling of acetylcholine

A
  • acetylcholine (ACh) is made from choline and Acetyl CoA

excitatory synapse vs inhibitory synpase

A

excitatory = brings membrane potential closer to AP threshold

inhibitory = takes membrane potential away from AP threshold

106
Q

what is summation?

A
  • the additive effects of graded potentials (IPSP and EPSP) to see if it reaches threshold (-55mV) to produce an action potential
107
Q

two types of summation

A

1) temporal = one presynaptic neuron releases a neurotransmitter many times over a period which may exceed the threshold value of post synaptic neuron
2) spatial = multiple presynaptic neurons together release enough neurotransmitter to exceed threshold of postsynaptic neuron

108
Q

what is frequency coding? what does this mean?

A
  • as the intensity of a stimulus increase, the frequency/rate of action potential increases

–> more action potentials result in moire neurotransmitter being released = greater IPSP or EPSP in next neuron

109
Q

what is neural integration?

A

one simple rule
–> an action potential is triggered if the membrane potential at the axon hillock is depolarized (more positive) to threshold
–> if the potential is below threshold, no action potential will occur

110
Q

what is the role of the axon hillock in neural integration?

A

serves as the decision-making site for a neuron
–> receives signals and determines if it will reach threshold, and if an action potential will occur
