Action Potential
-Rapid, large alterations in the membrane potential during which time the membrane potential may change 100 mV,( -70 to +30), and then repolarize to its RMP
1. Nerve2. Muscle cells 3. Endocrine4. Immune5. Reproductive cells

FUNCTIONS OF AP
1. Relay a neuron’s message over a relatively long
distance, leading to NT release.
2. Relay the activation signal over the surface of a muscle
cell.
3. “Motivate” neuroendocrine cells to release hormones.
4. Spread an activation response over the membrane
surface of immune cells.
5. Relay the message of fertilization over the surface of
an egg.

Electrotonic potentials & local response
10-20 mv < -ve than the RMP . trigger AP
2 types ;-
1. cat –electrotonic potentials= is a depolarising---- allows the Na+ ion to move in
2. an–electrotonic potentials = is a hyperpolarising current allows the k+ ion to move out

Rapid depolarization
1. When partial depolarization reaches the activation threshold, voltage-gated sodium ion channels open.
2. Sodium ions rush in.
3. The membrane potential changes from -70mV to +40mV.

Repolarization
1. Na++ ion channels close and become refractory.
2. Depolarization triggers opening of voltage-gated K+ ion channels.
3. K+ ions rush out of the cell, repolarizing and then hyperpolarizing the membrane.

Refractory Period
◦Absolute Lasts 1 msec Complete insensitivity exists to
another stimulus From beginning of action potential
until near end of repolarization. No matter how large the stimulus, a
second action potential cannot be produced.
Has consequences for function of muscle
◦Relative A stronger-than-threshold stimulus
can initiate another action potential

1. M gate= activation gate on Na channel; opens quickly when membrane is depolarized
2. H gate- inactivation gate on Na channel; Closes slowly after membrane is depolarized
Voltage-Gated Na++Channel

1. SINGLE GATE (N) that stays open as long as Vm is depolarized.
2. slowly this allows the Vm to depolarize due to Na influx;
3. Na and K currents do not offset each other right away

Action Potential Propagation:
1. Local Currents depolarize adjacent channels causingdepolarization and opening of adjacent Na channels
2. Question: Why doesn’t the action potential travel backward?

Transmission of a signal1. Think dominoes!
1. start the signal
knock down line of dominoes by tipping 1st one
trigger the signal
2. propagate the signal
do dominoes move down the line?
no, just a wave through them!
3. re-set the system
before you can do it again, have to set up dominoes again
reset the axon

Saltatory ConductionImpulse Conduction in Myelinated Neurons
11-34
Most Na+ channels concentrated at nodes. No myelin present.
Leakage of ions from one node to another destabilize the second leading to another action potential in the second node. And so on….
