We have theoretically studied the effect of swelling of axons on the electrophysiological properties of action potential propagation. The modified cable equation is solved numerically by considering the deformation and abnormalities in the axon's geometry. The result shows that the broadening of action potential pulses, amplitudes and the latency of the action potential are all affected. The extent...
Deformation of neuron structure can induce abnormalities in action potential propagation in nervous system, which is a potential threat from viewpoint of medical science. The effect of geometrical changes and deformation of neuron structure on the propagation of action potential has been studied theoretically. The theoretical model is based on modified cable equation considering spatial changes of...
The neural side effects of exposure to electric field from power lines are investigated both when a neuron's axon is at rest and when the axon is firing in a regular way. The frequency of the alternating current which oscillates has been considered 50Hz and 60 Hz. In some field strength the external electric field could stimulate the neuron to evoke an action potential even at condition of resting...
