This occurs at chemical synapses when neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron and produce excitation or inhibition of the postsynaptic cell. |
The EEG registers brain waves, or more specifically, the cortical electrical activity that results from a summation of postsynaptic potential. |
This quantal release of neurotransmitter has a critical influence on the electrical potential created in the postsynaptic membrane. |
Most knowledge of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptors comes from studies of the receptor on muscle cells. |
In order to bring normal balance between excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic potential, antiseizure drugs may use one or more of the following mechanisms. |
Venoms of the Elapidae snakes contain several postsynaptic polypeptide neurotoxins, such as bungarotoxin isolated from the venom of the banded krait. |
