This channel closes with depolarization and opens with hyperpolarization. |
Any change in membrane potential tending to make the inside even more negative is called hyperpolarization, while any change tending to make it less negative is called depolarization. |
Another possible physiological role for a hyperpolarization-activated inward current could be in the postburst hyperpolarization that is characteristic of parasol cells. |
A slight hyperpolarization occurs due to the charge difference between potassium and sodium ions across the membrane. |
Cordycepin decreases activity of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neuron through membrane hyperpolarization. |
Bending the cilia in one direction causes the cell membrane to depolarize, while hyperpolarization is induced by movement in the opposite direction. |
