... of toxic substances – is atrioventricular block, which is the inability of the action potential to progress from the atrium to the ventricle. Early and delayed afterdepolarizations are less common in fish hearts than in the hearts of endotherms, perhaps owing to the excitation–contraction coupling...

... metamorphosis caused shortening of atrial and ventricular action potentials (APs), with no changes in resting membrane potential or maximum velocity of AP upstroke, favoring higher heart rate possible in metamorphic animals. Potential-dependent potassium currents in axolotl myocardium were represented...

... cerebral cortex. Our results show that an acute reduction in temperature from 20 to 5°C decreases membrane potential, action potential width and amplitude, and whole-cell conductance. Importantly, acute exposure to 5°C considerably slows membrane repolarization by voltage-gated K + channels. Exposing...

...Varshinie Pillai; Leslie Buck; Ebrahim Lari ABSTRACT Goldfish are one of a few species able to avoid cellular damage during month-long periods in severely hypoxic environments. By suppressing action potentials in excitatory glutamatergic neurons, the goldfish brain decreases its overall energy...

Prolonged exposure to new thermal conditions induces compensatory changes in ion channel expression and function, which usually partially alleviate the direct effects of temperature on cardiac APs and heart rate.

... of I Na was reflected as a low BPT for the rate of action potential upstroke in vitro (21.7±1.2°C) and the velocity of impulse transmission in vivo (21.9±2.2°C). These findings from different levels of biological organization strongly suggest that heat-dependent deterioration of Na + channel function...

... of action potentials by cells in the PN, spinal cord and EO. Thus, to provide a biological context for the electric field estimates, we next consider the energetic cost of action potential generation in neurons. It is generally agreed that this cost arises primarily from the Na + /K + -ATPase, which...
