Slow afterhyperpolarisation (sAHP) refers to prolonged periods of hyperpolarisation in a neuron or cardiomyocyte following an action potential or other depolarising event. In neurons, trains of action potentials may be required to induce sAHPs; this is unlike fast AHPs that require no more than a single action potential. A variety of ionic mechanism may contribute to sAHPs, including potassium efflux from calcium-〔P. Sah, Ca(2+)-activated K+ currents in neurones: types, physiological roles and modulation. Trends in Neurosciences 19:150-154 (1996).〕 or sodium-〔P. C. Schwindt, W.J. Spain, and W.E.

Avesar, A sodium-pump-mediated afterhyperpolarization in pyramidal neurons., Journal of Neuroscience 33:13025-13041 (2013).〕 Depending on neuron type and stimulus used for induction, slow afterhyperpolarisations can last for one second to several tens of seconds, during which time the sAHP effectively inhibits neural activity. Fast and Medium AHPs have shorter durations and different ionic mechanisms. ==See also== Afterhyperpolarization Calcium-activated potassium channel Sodium-activated potassium channel Sodium pump 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Slow afterhyperpolarization」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
