These neurons communicate with one another by means of long protoplasmic fibers called axons, which carry trains of signal pulses called action potentials to distant parts of the brain or body targeting specific recipient cells.

These channels regulate membrane excitability, and halothane has been found to reduce neuronal firing by hyperpolarizing neurons by a current similar to TASK.

These questions include how signals are processed by neurites – thin extensions from a neuronal cell body, consisting of dendrites ( specialized to receive synaptic inputs from other neurons ) and axons ( specialized to conduct nerve impulses called action potentials ) – and somas ( the cell bodies of the neurons containing the nucleus ), and how neurotransmitters and electrical signals are used to process information in a neuron.

These questions include the patterning and regionalization of the nervous system, neural stem cells, differentiation of neurons and glia, neuronal migration, axonal and dendritic development, trophic interactions, and synapse formation.

These impulses are extremely fast, with some myelinated neurons conducting at speeds up to 120 m / s.

These neurons terminate throughout the brain stem, with one tenth of fibres stopping in the thalamus and the rest stopping in the medulla, pons and periaqueductal grey of the midbrain tectum.

These receptors, which exist in a variety of areas in the body, inhibit firing of neurons that would otherwise be stimulated to do so by nociceptors.

These neurons release the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate at their synapses.

These include sensory neurons that transmute physical stimuli such as light and sound into neural signals, and motor neurons that transmute neural signals into activation of muscles or glands ; however in many species the great majority of neurons receive all of their input from other neurons and send their output to other neurons.

These first order neurons enter the spinal cord via Lissauer's tract.

These second order neurons ( spinothalamic tract ) then decussate, crossing via the anterior white commissure before ascending contralaterally.

The first studies of the electrophysiological properties of neurons in MT showed that a large portion of the cells were tuned to the speed and direction of moving visual stimuli These results suggested that MT played a significant role in the processing of visual motion.

These findings have also been confirmed by stereotactic microelectrode analysis of single cortical neurons in a study, which involved nine patients undergoing bilateral cingulotomy.

These results combined with electrophysiological investigation of the function of neurons in the anterior cingulate cortex have provided insights that can be used in the improvement of cingulotomy performed on patients treated for OCD.

These neurons use GABA as their neurotransmitter.

These constitute the great majority of neurons in the densely packed hippocampal layers.

These reflect subthreshold membrane potentials and strongly modulate the spiking of hippocampal neurons and synchronise across the hippocampus in a travelling wave pattern.

These proteins would then intervene the rapid upstroke of an action potential, thus allowing a flow of sodium ions into neurons.

These studies are quite exciting because they show that neurons that have suffered the consequences of loss of MECP2 function are poised to regain functionality once MECP2 is provided gradually and in the correct spatial distribution.

These findings have led to the hypotheses that ( 1 ) breakdown of the blood – brain barrier allows access of neuron-binding autoantibodies and soluble exogenous Aβ42 to brain neurons and ( 2 ) binding of these auto-antibodies to neurons triggers and / or facilitates the internalization and accumulation of cell surface-bound Aβ42 in vulnerable neurons through their natural tendency to clear surface-bound autoantibodies via endocytosis.

These are just another couple of characters to roll.

These men are not callous.

These things are important to almost all Persians and perhaps most important to the most ordinary.

These are traversed by another line of vaults, and thus rooms, arched on all four sides, are formed.

These songs ( practically all Persian music, for that matter ) are limited to a range of two octaves.

These are not, however, differences in federal structure.

These my grandmother left in their places ( they are still there, more persistent and longer-lived than the generations of man ) and planted others like them, that flourished without careful tending.

These are like the initial ways in which the world forces itself upon the self and thrusts the self into decision and choice.

These are suggestive of Selma Lagerlof.

These assumptions lead to an organization with one man at the top, six directly under him, six under each of these, and so on until there are six levels of personnel.

These ways are absolutely irreconcilable because they offer two different recipes for man's redemption from chaos.

These responses are explicable in terms of characteristics inherent in the crisis.

These discoveries are of present interest chiefly to the scientific community ; ;

These are personality factors ; ;

These are, if the research is done with subtlety and skill, researchable topics, but the research is missing.

These moments are historical events in the lives of individual authors with which the student of comparative literature must be frequently concerned.

These lives are in themselves outside of the moral order and are unburdened with moral responsibility.

These conceptions and the manner in which they were transposed into poetry or engendered by poetic form are intrinsic to western life from the time of Aeschylus to that of Shakespeare.

These biographical analogies are obvious, and far too much time has been spent speculating on their possible implications.

These women whose organization grew out of the old suffrage movement are dedicated to Thomas Jefferson's dictum that one must cherish the people's spirit but `` Keep alive their attention ''.

These are, of course, the same people whose support he has only now rejected to seek the independent vote.

These are New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Maryland, Missouri, New Jersey, Illinois and Minnesota.

These men are spenders.
