Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels at Nodes of Ranvier Secure Axonal Spike Propagation
Functional connectivity between brain regions relies on long-range signaling by myelinated axons. This is secured by saltatory action potential propagation that depends fundamentally on sodium channel availability at nodes of Ranvier. Although various potassium channel types have been anatomically l...
