DESCRIPTION
Synaptic Action. Synaptic Potentials: EPSP IPSP. Synaptic Potentials. Excitatory Postsynaptic Potential (EPSP) triggered by excitatory neurotransmitters open ligand-gated Na + channels allows Na + to flow inside the cell causing a slight depolarization of the postsynaptic cell - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

Synaptic Potentials
•Excitatory Postsynaptic Potential (EPSP)•triggered by excitatory neurotransmitters•open ligand-gated Na+ channels•allows Na+ to flow inside the cell•causing a slight depolarization of the postsynaptic cell•moves the postsynaptic cell closer to firing an action potential
•Inhibitory Postsynaptic Potential (IPSP)•triggered by inhibitory neurotransmitters•open ligand-gated K+ channels or Cl- channels•allows K+ to flow out of the cell or Cl- to flow inside the cell•causing a slight hyperpolarization of the postsynaptic cell•moves the postsynaptic cell further from firing an action potential
