Selective permeability of the cell membrane
• Enables constant internal milleu• 1. Macromoleculs (neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, neurohormons) pass through themembrane = Endocytosis and egzocytosis
• 2. simple diffusion: hydrophobic (O2, CO2) and smallneutral molecules (H2O)
• 3. glucose, amino‐acids, ATP, anorganic ions are transported via carriers and channels

Ion channels
• They form hydrophilic pores through themembrane.
• Transport is faster then via carriers. • The flow of ions through the channels does not require metabolic energy; the flow is passive.
• The electrochemical driving force across the membrane, but not the channel itself, determines the direction and eventual equilibrium of this flow.

• most of the time they are open• control the flow of ions during the restingmembrane potential
• known as leak channels• nongated Na+ and K+ channels contribute to the resting membrane potential

Gated Channels
• Allosteric proteins ‐ i.e., they exist in more than one conformation, and their function is altered when they shift from oneconformation to another.
• The transition of a channel between the open and closed states is called gating.
• At rest, these channels are mostly closed.• They open in response to different stimuli.

• (2) active state, in which the channel is open;• (3) refractory state, in which the channel is inactivated

• There are some cases in which Na+ permeability is blocked.
• Tetrodotoxin (TTX) ‐ a toxin isolated from theovaries of Japanese puffer fish
• binds to the sodium channel on the outside and blocks the sodium permeability pore
• Neurons are not able to generate actionpotentials after the application of TTX
• Lidocaine also blocks these channels

• voltage‐gated Ca2+ channel• Ca2+ ions enter the postsynaptic neurons through these channels
• Ca2+ ions activate enzymes• Depolarization of presynaptic nerve terminals results in entry of Ca2+ ions into the terminal viathese channels
• An increase in the levels of intracellular Ca2+ results in the release of transmitters frompresynaptic nerve terminals.

• voltage‐gated K+ channels• K+ channels are generally blocked by chemicals, such as
tetraethylammonium (TEA) or 4‐aminopyridine (4‐AP)• The opening of voltage‐ gated K+ channels is also caused by
depolarization of the neuronal membrane• Because these voltage‐gated K+ channels open with a delay
(about 1 msec) after the membrane depolarization, they are called delayed rectifier K+ channels.
• Repolarization of the neuron• after‐hyperpolarization or undershoot• TEA – blocks these channels

• Directly gated ligand channel:• five protein subunits• Recognition site for the chemical substance is part of the ion channel
• Ionotropic receptor• A neurotransmitter binds to an ionotropic receptor and brings about a conformational change that results in the opening of the ion channel
• usually bring about fast synaptic responses that last for only a few milliseconds

• An indirectly gated ligand channel• the ion channel and the recognition site for the transmitter (receptor) are separate.
• Metabotropic receptors• When a transmitter binds to the metabotropicreceptor, a guanosine‐5′‐triphosphate‐ binding protein (G‐protein) is activated
• It activates a second‐messenger system in the neuron

• The second messenger can either act directly on the ion channel to open it, or
• It can activate an enzyme that, opens the channel by phosphorylating the channelprotein in the presence of a protein kinase
• Elicits slow, long‐lasting synaptic actions

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS• Lambert‐Eaton (Eaton‐Lambert) Syndrome• associated with small‐cell carcinoma of the lung• cells expressing voltage‐gated Ca2+ channels• An antibody is produced in the body against these Ca2+
channels,• its presence results in a loss of voltage‐gated Ca2+ channels
in the presynaptic terminals• less Ca2+ enters the presynaptic terminal during
depolarization and, consequently, there is a reduction inthe release of the transmitter (Ach)
• results in muscle weakness, dry mouth, constipation, reduced sweating, orthostatic hypotension (dizziness while standing or walking), and impotence
