Meaning of Depolarisation from wikipedia

- In biology, depolarization or hypopolarization is a change within a cell, during which the cell undergoes a shift in electric charge distribution, resulting...
- this begins at the sinoatrial node (SA node); from here the wave of depolarisation travels down to the apex of the heart. The hexaxial reference system...
- prominent features on the ECG: the P wave (atrial depolarisation), the QRS complex (ventricular depolarisation) and the T wave (ventricular repolarisation)...
- extra deflection that reflects the rapid depolarisation of the left ventricle, followed by the slower depolarisation of the right ventricle. An incomplete...
- slowly rising current (ramp depolarisation) in vitro. The Hodgkin–Huxley model also shows accommodation. Sudden depolarisation of a nerve evokes propagated...
- A sinus rhythm is any cardiac rhythm in which depolarisation of the cardiac muscle begins at the sinus node. It is necessary, but not sufficient, for normal...
- concentration of voltage-dependent calcium channels (which trigger depolarisation) and calcium-activated pot****ium channels (for repolarisation afterwards)...
- an influx of positive ions through the channel to cause nerve cell depolarisation. Phencyclidine inhibits the NMDA receptor by binding to the specific...
- negative and therefore exists closer to the threshold potential. Cellular depolarisation can be due to a raised external concentration of pot****ium ions K+,...
- ions, such as Na+ and K+ ions to enter the cell. This causes initial depolarisation of the osmoreceptor and activates voltage-gated sodium channel, which...
