Synaptic NMDA receptor activity at resting membrane potentials [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are crucial for glutamatergic synaptic signaling in the mammalian central nervous system. When activated by glutamate and glycine/D-serine, the NMDAR ion channel can open, but current flux is further regulated by voltage-dependent

Effects of membrane potentials on the electroporation of giant unilamellar vesicles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Living organisms maintain a resting membrane potential, which plays an important role in various biophysical and biological processes. In the context of medical applications, irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a non-thermal and minimally invasive ...

MEMBRANE POTENTIALS AND CATAPHORETIC POTENTIALS OF PROTEINS [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1923 1. It has been shown in preceding publications that the membrane potentials of protein solutions or gels are determined by differences in the concentration of a common ion (e.g. hydrogen ion) inside a protein solution or protein gel and an outside aqueous solution free from protein, and that the membrane potentials can be calculated with a good degree ...

How Far Do Membrane Potentials Extend in Space Beyond the Membrane Itself?
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2010 The dynamic Nernst-Planck-Poisson equations are used to describe a model system in which an infinitesimal partially permeable membrane separates two different ionic solutions which extend freely in either direction.

Conserved Kir channel mechanisms governing intrinsic excitability in human and rodent parvalbumin neurons [PDF]
Communications BiologyHuman cortical interneurons differ from their rodent counterparts in intrinsic membrane properties, yet the mechanisms regulating excitability across physiologically relevant membrane potentials remain poorly defined.

Mitochondrial membrane potential [PDF]
Analytical Biochemistry, 2018 The mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) generated by proton pumps (Complexes I, III and IV) is an essential component in the process of energy storage during oxidative phosphorylation. Together with the proton gradient (ΔpH), ΔΨm forms the transmembrane potential of hydrogen ions which is harnessed to make ATP.

On the accuracy of cell-attached current-clamp recordings from cortical neurons
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022 Cell-attached current-clamp (CA/CC) recordings have been proposed to measure resting membrane potential and synaptic/agonist responses in neurons without disrupting the cell membrane, thus avoiding the intracellular dialysis that occurs in conventional ...
