Draw an AP tracing against time. Describe the phases. Be sure to include a description
of all the components (ion channels) responsible for these phases, and also be sure to
appropriately label the graph (phases and axis labels) - ✔️✔️*Draw the AP graph and
label
1) resting state: Cell more negative inside, higher concentration of K+ inside, Na+
outside. This si the cell during the absecene of an AP.The Na+ and K+ channels are
closed.
2) Depolarization:A stimulus opens some sodium channels. Na+ flows through
depolarizing the membrane. If the depolarization reaches the threshold it causes an AP
3) Rising phase of the AP: Depolarization opens most Na+ v channels, K+ channels
remain closed, Na+ influx makes the inside of the membrane more positive with respect
to the outside
4)Falling phase: most Na+ channels become inactivated, most K+ channels open
causing K+ outflow, making the inside of the cell negative again
5) Undershoot: The Na+ channels are closed,but some K+ channels still open. As these
K+ channels close the NA+ becomes unblocked (still closed, and the membrane returns
to its resting state
1) Resting state repeated
provide context for your answer. - ✔️✔️SSRI's increase the amount of synaptic 5-HT
available for binding on the the 5HT-1a receptors by blocking reuptake. Initially this
causes more anxiety as the SSRI acts on the 5HT receptors. These presynaptic
receptors form an inhibitory feedback loop. In the presence of increased 5HT, there is a
decrease in the firing rate of these serotanergic neurons. These cells ultimately correct
themselves tho, to eventually maintain their baseline firing rate. They achieve this by
eliminating the amount of receptors on the presynaptic cell. These then return to
baseline firing in conjunction with the increased amount of 5HT at the synapses and the
post-synaptic cells are now able to receive appropriate firing and 5HT, therefore
reducing overall anxiety. This nuerocellular process explains the delayed initial efficacy
of SSRI treatment of anxiety.
