A. DEPOLARIZAREA
este activat pragul de excitare al tesutului nervos de catre PPSE
se inregistreaza +50mV
se deschid canalele de Sodiu (Na+)
fortele se sumeaza si actioneaza simultan asupra membranei din
exterior in interior (presiune de 120mV) conducand foarte multi
ioni de Sodiu (Na+) in interiorul celulei
se produce influx de sodiu
Spike potential/overshoot – maximul depolarizarii.
treptat, se deschid si canalele de potasiu si se produce un eflux de
potasiu
la potasiu, fortele actioneaza in directie opusa, din interior spre
exterior, cu o presiune de 20mV, conducand ionii de potasiu in
exteriorul celulei
dupa aproape 1 milisecunda, se inchid canalele de sodiu, proces
care marcheaza incheierea fazei de crestere
B. REPOLARIZAREA
in acest moment, are loc procesul de inchidere al canalelor de
potasiu (lent si gradual)
intra in actiune pompa de sodiu-potasiu care scoate (-) trei ioni de
sodiu si introduce (+) doi ioni de potasiu – forta care actioneaza in
directia restabilirii starii de repaus.
*inca ies ioni de potasiu, dar canalele de potasiu sunt in procesul de
inchidere
C. HIPERPOLARIZAREA
in acest moment, canalele de potasiu sunt inchise
Pompa de sodiu-potasiu contribuie la restabilirea starii de repaus
valoarea minima – posthiperpolarizare
® Tipuri de sinapsa:
axo-dendritice
axo-somatice
axo-axonice
dendro-dendritice
sinapse chimice (care elimina o
substanta chimica inervatoare)
sinapse electrice (elimina semnale
electrice)
® Structura sinapsei:
Terminal presinaptic – zona
activa, o portiune din membrana
cu o densitate mare de pori prin
care sunt eliberati
neurotransmitatori
Componenta postsinaptica –
densitatea postsinaptica, zona cu o
densitate mare de proteine
receptori postsinaptici, care se
modifica frecvent, in functie de
neurotransmitatori
ionotropici – au un canal
ionic in structura lor;
receptarea unui
neurotransmitator (cuplare
ligand) determina
deschiderea canalului ionic conducand la un potential
postsinaptic
metabotropici – nu au canale ionice in structura lor, insa au
o proteina de semnalizare, care, in momentul cuplarii cu un
neurotransmitator, elibereaza o subunitate: Proteina G;
aceasta dupa ce a fost eliberata poate determina un PPS,
legandu-se de un canal ionic sau poate stimula sinteza unui
mesager de ordinul II
® Exocitoza Neurotransmitatorilor
procesul de eliberare a neurotransmitatorilor
la nivelul zonei active/presinaptice, exista canale voltaj-dependente
de Ca2+ care, in repaus, sunt inchise.
atunci cand sunt stimulate de PA, se deschid si are loc un influx de
ioni Ca2+
astfel veziculele cu NT se mobilizeaza si merg spre zona activa,
declansand exocitoza neurotransmitatorilor in fanta sinaptica
V. Neurotransmitters
® Classes
® Small-molecule neurotransmitters
amino acids
monoamines
acetylcholine
unconventional neurotransmitters (their mechanisms of action are
unusual)
® Large-molecule neurotransmitters
neuropeptides
® most neurotransmitters produce either excitation or inhibition, not both, but
a few produce excitation under some circumstances and inhibition under
others
MONOAMINE NEUROTRANSMITTERS
Monoamines are another class of small-molecule
neurotransmitters Each is synthesized from a single amino
acid—hence
The name monoamine (one amine). Monoamine
neurotransmitters are slightly larger than amino acid
neurotransmitters, and their effects tend to be more diffuse
There are four monoamine neurotransmitters
DOPAMINE
EPINEPHRINE
NOREPINEPHRINE
SEROTONIN
They are subdivided into two groups, catecholamines and
indolamines, on the basis of their structures. Dopamine,
norepinephrine, and epinephrine are catecholamines. Each is
synthesized from the amino acid tyrosine. Tyrosine is
converted to l-dopa, which in turn is converted to dopamine
Neurons that release norepinephrine are called
noradrenergic; those that release epinephrine are called
adrenergic.
ACETYLCHOLINE
Acetylcholine (abbreviated Ach) is a small-molecule
neurotransmitter that is in one major respect like a professor
who is late for a lecture
Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter at neuro-muscular
junctions, at many of the synapses in the autonomic nervous
system, and at synapses in several parts of the central
nervous system
UNCONVENTIONAL NEUROTRANSMITTERS
One class of unconventional neurotransmitters,
(1) soluble-gas neurotransmitters, includes:
NITRIC OXIDE and CARBON MONOXIDE
These neurotransmitters are produced in the neural
cytoplasm and immediately diffuse through the cell
membrane into the extracellular fluid and then into nearby
cells. They easily pass through cell membranes because they
are soluble in lipids. Once inside another cell, they stimulate
the production of a second messenger and in a few seconds
are deactivated by being converted to other molecules. They
are difficult to study because they exist for only a few
seconds
Another class of unconventional neurotransmitters is the
(2) endocannabinoids, includes:
ANANDAMIDE
Like the soluble gases, the endocannabinoids are produced
immediately before they are released. Endocannabinoids are
synthesized from fatty compounds in the cell membrane;
they tend to be released from the dendrites and cell body;
and they tend to have most of their effects on presynaptic
neurons, inhibiting subsequent synaptic transmission
NEUROPEPTIDES
About 100 neuropeptides have been identified. The actions
of each neuropeptide depend on its amino acid sequence.
One category (pituitary peptides) contains neuropeptides
that were first identified as hormones released by the
pituitary, a
Second category (hypothalamic peptides) contains
neuropeptides that were first identified as hormones released
by the hypothalamus
Third category (brain–gut peptides) contains neuropeptides
that were first discovered in the gut.
Fourth category (opioid peptides) contains neuropeptides
that are similar in structure to the active ingredients of
opium, and the fifth (miscellaneous peptides) is a catch-all
category that contains all of the neuropeptide transmitters
that do not fit into one of the other four categories
