The high concentrations (500 μM) required to inhibit the propagating calcium signals also inhibited the sodium channels responsible for action potential propagation, so firm conclusions could not be drawn.
Myelin increases the speed and efficiency of action potential propagation.
Failure of action potential propagation into the distal dendrites often occurs at branch points.
Furthermore, when the extracellular action potential was recorded, unidirectional action potential propagation was observed.
Gap junction (GJ) channels provide low resistance passages for rapid action potential propagation in the heart.
A novel approach for simulating potential propagation in neuronal branches with high accuracy is developed.
Dynamic uncoupling in Cx45-containing GJs might contribute to a slower action potential propagation in the AV node.
The design of computer simulations of action potential propagation is facilitated by adapting numerical concepts routinely applied by computational physicists.
Electrophysiological activity revealed biological signals involving action potential propagation along neuronal fibres and synaptic-like release of neurotransmitters.
Also, temperature decrease has a potential propagation path for reactor scrams by reactivity insertions as a consequence of the reactivity feedbacks.
Procedures for CM and CVP derivation, purification, and functional differentiation in monolayer cultures were first optimized to yield robust intercellular coupling and maximize velocity of action potential propagation.
