ion conductance in a sentence
Examples
- This re-establishes the ATP consumption / production balance, which is then maintained by reducing ion conductance and releasing GABA . The decrease in neuronal activity renders the turtle comatose for the duration of anoxia.
- The suppression of synaptic transmission occurs because the presynaptic impulse temporarily fails to trigger the release of neurotransmitters, which, coupled with the altered ion conductance and a change in postsynaptic neuroreceptors, makes synapses unresponsive to neurotransmitter binding, thereby inhibiting postsynaptic excitation.
