Neurons in vertebrate central nervous systems initiate and conduct sodium action potentials in distinct subcellular compartments that differ architecturally and electrically. of Ranvier in the central nervous system suggests a similar mechanism of current flux minimization along myelinated axons. Neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) generate action potentials at the axon initial segment (AIS)… Continue reading Neurons in vertebrate central nervous systems initiate and conduct sodium action
