IPSPistä
IPSP stands for inhibitory postsynaptic potential. It is a transient hyperpolarization or the stabilization of the membrane potential following the release of neurotransmitters from a presynaptic neuron. This hyperpolarization makes it less likely for the postsynaptic neuron to fire an action potential. IPSPs are crucial for regulating neuronal activity and processing information within the nervous system.
IPSPs are generated when neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane that are linked to
Common neurotransmitters that mediate IPSPs include gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine. These inhibitory neurotransmitters play vital
