Membrane potential Potential difference (voltage) across the
cell membrane. In all cells of the body (excitable and non-
excitable). Caused by ion concentration differences
between intracellular and extracellular fluid.

Nernst potential
For each ion proportional to ratio of concentrations inside and outside the cell.
Always expressed as extracellular fluid has potential zero, and Nernst potential that from inside the cell.

Membrane permeability for K+ and Na+ (resting state) In resting nerve cells – open potassium
”leak” channels (“tandem pore domain”). 100x more permeable for K+ than Na+.

Contribution of Na+/K+ pump
Maintenance of concentration gradients for K+ and Na+ across cell membranes.
Electrogenic: creates additional negativity ~4 mV.

Role of Ca2+
c(Cai)=10-7 mol/l
c(Cao)= 10-3 mol/l Strong concentration gradient (10 000-
fold concentration difference) In resting state, permeability for Ca2+
negligable. In heart cells, voltage-gated Ca2+
channels participate in action potential (plateau).

Action potential with plateau (heart)

Initiation of action potentials Action potentials will not discharge until
there is appropriate stimulus – depolarization. Exception – spontaneous rhythmicity.
Stimulus can be mechanical (mechanoreceptors), chemical (neurotransmitters) or electrical (heart muscle).
Positive feedback opens more and more Na+ channels.

Initiation of action potentials “Acute local potentials” must reach
threshold for eliciting AP “all or nothing” phenomenon.

Refractory Period Period of decreased excitability (relative r.p.)
or complete inexcitability (absolute r.p.)during and after action potential.

Rhythmicity of Excitable Tissues Repeated spontaneous rhythmical
discharges (no outside stimulus). Heart (SA-node rhythmic activity),
intestinal smooth muscle (perystalsis) i CNS (breathing pace-maker).
Other excitable tissues can spontaneously discharge if threshold is lowered.
