REAL-TIME PROCESSING OF ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL EVENTS AT THE NEUROMUSCULAR JUNCTIONA parameter of considerable interest in synaptic physiology is the average number of quanta of neurotransmitter (Acetylcholine, ACH) released from the pre-synaptic nerve terminal. The results of such quantal analysis have ...
This current is converted into a depolarization by the passive electrical properties of the muscle fiber. In those species where there are prominent postsynaptic folds, they focus the depolarizing effect on the folded membrane. This depolarization acts to open voltage-gated sodium channels that are ...

from Chapter 17 / Lesson 4 15K A nerve is the group of fibers in the body that uses electrical and chemical signals to transmit sensory and motor information. This lesson looks at nerves in more detail and explains just how nerves help the body ...
Describe the physiological events that occur at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Give the medical term that matches the following literal definition: Pertaining to the nerves Describe the various components of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Discuss how a peripheral nerve that ...
Compared with wild-type axons, injured transgenic mouse axons lacking neuregulin-1 regenerate more slowly, display aberrant terminal sprouting at the neuromuscular junction and are hypomyelinated [101]. Although Schwann cells in the distal nerve initially mount an effective response that promotes axon ...
26,27 Our results demonstrate that although dysgeusia can occur with ICIs, the risk is lower compared with chemotherapy. Headache is one of the common NAEs from the use of ICIs. It is either associated with the endocrine AEs seen with ICIs or as a separate neurological event.28 The subgroup...
Neuromuscular disorders are disorders of the nerves that control the voluntary muscles. One of the causes is the immune system disorder and genetic. More than 2 million people in the United States are affected by such form of neuromuscular diseases and about 30% of them are under the age18. ...
indirectly. For example, neuron-derived neuregulin promotes Schwann cell migration and aids in recovery [100]. Compared with wild-type axons, injured transgenic mouse axons lacking neuregulin-1 regenerate more slowly, display aberrant terminal sprouting at the neuromuscular junction and are hypomyelina...
