lüll Generation of resting membrane potential Wright SHAdv Physiol Educ 2004[Dec]; 28 (1-4): 139-42This brief review is intended to serve as a refresher on the ideas associated with teaching students the physiological basis of the resting membrane potential. The presentation is targeted toward first-year medical students, first-year graduate students, or senior undergraduates. The emphasis is on general concepts associated with generation of the electrical potential difference that exists across the plasma membrane of every animal cell. The intention is to provide students a general view of the quantitative relationship that exists between 1) transmembrane gradients for K(+) and Na(+) and 2) the relative channel-mediated permeability of the membrane to these ions.|*Cell Physiological Phenomena[MESH]|*Membrane Potentials[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Electrophysiology/*education[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Physiology/*education[MESH] |
