Preferred term

Inhibitory Postsynaptic Potentials  

Type

  • Topical Descriptor

Broader concept

Entry terms

  • IPSP
  • IPSPs

Note

  • for miniature inhibitory postsynaptic potentials coordinate with MINIATURE POSTSYNAPTIC POTENTIALS

Scope note

  • Hyperpolarization of membrane potentials at the SYNAPTIC MEMBRANES of target neurons during NEUROTRANSMISSION. They are local changes which diminish responsiveness to excitatory signals.

History note

  • 2007
