Action Potentials in Different Nerve MembranesAP = A membrane potential change caused by a flow of ions through ion channels in the membrane
Intracellular RecordingTwo Points, Ea and Eb
Conduction Velocity (cv) =Probagation time/distancebetween a and b
Node of Ranvier:Depolarize then Spike
Motoneuron, Squid Axon:Shocked away from a Latency is distance Traveled.
Conduction Velocity butNot Channel Conductance is Temperature Dependent

Hermann’s Cable Theory: Passive spread of APsSimilar to a Leaky Telegraph Cable
Re = extracellular membrane resistanceRi = cytoplasmic membrane resistanceRm = variable dependent upon channel gatingthat causes change in emfCm = membrane as parallel plate capacitor
“These two elements may be just different aspects of the samemembrane mechanism” Cole and Curtis 1938

Action Potentials: 1, Underlying ionic basis = Na and K channels2. All or none3. Propagated by passive spread of electrotonic currents4. Restriction of ion channel expression – Example Node of Ranvier and Saltatory Conduction
Nav1.6 and Kv1.2 (See Plate 1)5. Ion channels have no thresholds for activation. AP 15% TH6. Code is not in the width or height of the AP – Information code = The Frequency

Voltage-clamp Electrophysiology – Approach is PreparationDependent – Best Biophysical Technique to Study Ion Channel Activity
E’ = recording electrodeI” = current injecting electrodeFBA = feedback amplifier (Px changes can be rapid and FBAwith high freq. response has to readjust the current injection constantly )
Principle: Vc is set by investigatorSimultaneously Acts as a Voltage Sensor (E’) and CurrentInjector (I’)
Best Utility for These 3:Two MicroelectrodeSuction PipettePatch Clamp
Im = Ii + Ic = Ii +Cm dE dt

The Independence Relation: First recognized that currentcould be separated into components carried by differentions.
First to use the approach of Ion Substitution

HH Model to Determine the H Infinity Curve for Na Channel Inactivation
Activation: rapid process that opens Na channels during a depolarization
Inactivation: process that closes Na channels during a depolarization; mustrepolarize membrane to release channels from inactivated state
Recovery from Inactivation Curves
