early inward current
Biology; Neuroscience
The initial electrical current, measured in voltage clamp experiments, that results from the voltagedependent entry of a cation such as Na+ or Ca2+; produces the rising phase of the action potential.
spinal shock
Biology; Neuroscience
The initial flaccid paralysis that accompanies damage to descending motor pathways.
rising phase
Biology; Neuroscience
The initial, depolarizing, phase of an action potential, caused by the regenerative, voltage-dependent influx of a cation such as Na+ or Ca2+.
pia mater
Biology; Neuroscience
The innermost of the three layers of the meninges, which is closely applied to the surface of the brain.
input
Biology; Neuroscience
The innervation of a target cell by a particular axon; more loosely, the innervation of a target.
