Modification of the lectric response of a single Ranvier node by narcosis, refractoriness and polarization.

چکیده
THE PRESENT investigation is undertaken to show how the physiological properties of the plasma membrane at the node of Ranvier is modified by narcosis, the relatively refractory period and electrotonus. We have already dealt with this problem in previous papers (5, 6), and the present study confirms and expands the previous results.

Effects of Polarization of the Receptor Membrane and of the First Ranvier Node in a Sense Organ
It has previously been shown that the site of production of the generator potential in Pacinian corpuscles is the receptor membrane of the non-myelinated ending, and the site of initiation of the nerve impulse, the adjacent (first) Ranvier node. Effects of membrane polarization of these sites were studied in the present work. Nerve ending and first Ranvier node were isolated by dissection, elec...

Introduction: The aim of the present study was to determine direct effects of NO modulation on protective electrophysiological properties of atrioventricular node (AV node) in the experimental model of AF in rabbit. Methods: Isolated perfused rabbit AV nodal preparations were used in two groups. In the first group (N=7), LNAME (50μM) was applied. In the second group (N=12), different concent...
متن کاملCurrent-voltage relations of single nodes of Ranvier as examined by voltage-clamp technique.
THE RELATIONSHIP between the potential difference across an excitable membrane and the current that flows through the membrane has been investigated on the squid giant axon by the use of the so-called voltage-clamp technique (7, 17). This technique involves the sudden elevation of the membrane potential and, by an automatic control of the membrane current, the maintenance for a certain period o...
متن کاملModulation of extracellular atrioventricular node field potential pattern and ventricular rhythm by morphine in experimental atrial fibrillation in isolated rabbit heart
Introduction: Endorphins are produced by cardiomyocytes, and exert different effects on the heart. The aim of the present study is to assess morphine effects on extracellular atrioventricular (AV) node field potential pattern and ventricular rhythm of isolated rabbit heart during experimental atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods: Effects of different concentrations of morphine (10, 20, 50 and 1...

Introduction: Recent studies have shown acute cardioprotective effects of cyclosporine. The aim of the present study was to determine the protective role of cyclosporine on the model simulated the rotational nodal arrhythmia (AVNRT) by using extracellular field potential recordings of isolated atrioventricular-node (AV-node) of rabbit. Methods: This study was performed on isolated double-per...
