Action potential — In physiology, an action potential is a short lasting event in which the electrical membrane potential of a cell rapidly rises and falls, following a consistent trajectory. Action potentials occur in several types of animal cells, called… … Wikipedia
Quantitative models of the action potential — In neurophysiology, several mathematical models of the action potential have been developed, which fall into two basic types. The first type seeks to model the experimental data quantitatively, i.e., to reproduce the measurements of current and… … Wikipedia
Tetany (action potential summation) — Tetany is a muscular physical state at which action potentials from nerves arrive to the skeletal muscle motor end plate rapidly enough in succession to cause a steady contraction. This differs from individual twitches in that the twitches are… … Wikipedia
nerve fiber action potential — an action potential recorded from a single nerve fiber; see also compound nerve action p … Medical dictionary
muscle fiber action potential — the action potential recorded on a muscle fiber spreading in both directions away from the plate region to initiate a contraction; see also single fiber electromyography … Medical dictionary
Single-cell recording — is a technique used in research to observe changes in voltage or current in a neuron.In this technique an animal, usually anesthetized, has a microelectrode inserted into its skull and into a neuron in the area of the brain that is of interest.… … Wikipedia
Single-unit — Visceral Smooth Muscle (SUVSM)A single smooth muscle cell in a bundle is innervated by an autonomic nerve fibre [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomic nervous system] . This cell then propagates an action potential in neighbouring cells due to… … Wikipedia
Single-unit recording — In neurophysiology, single unit recording is the use of an electrode to record the electrophysiological activity (action potentials) from a single neuron. An electrode introduced into the brain of a living animal will detect electrical activity… … Wikipedia
action — actionless, adj. /ak sheuhn/, n. 1. the process or state of acting or of being active: The machine is not in action now. 2. something done or performed; act; deed. 3. an act that one consciously wills and that may be characterized by physical or… … Universalium
