DISCRETE‐DYNAMIC EQUATIONS OF ONSET AND PROPAGATION OF MONOSYNAPTIC POTENTIALS (PSP)

Abstract

The equations take into account structural and geometrical parameters (sizes and a configuration of the synapse, geometrical properties of the neuron membrane, local changes of concentrations and potential) and determine changes of concentrations and the potential on the membrane and in hemispheres for discrete areas of the cytoplasm and the adjacent membrane part. Their investigation demonstrated that the equations may form the basis of sufficiently complete neuron description with due allowance for the fundamental physico‐chemical laws of motion and for the structural properties of separate parts of the nerve‐cell.
