Difference between Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Myocyte

Excitatory postsynaptic potential vs. Myocyte

In neuroscience, an excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) is a postsynaptic potential that makes the postsynaptic neuron more likely to fire an action potential. A myocyte (also known as a muscle cell) is the type of cell found in muscle tissue.

Similarities between Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Myocyte

Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Myocyte have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acetylcholine, Action potential, Central nervous system, Neuromuscular junction.

Acetylcholine

Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic chemical that functions in the brain and body of many types of animals, including humans, as a neurotransmitter—a chemical message released by nerve cells to send signals to other cells.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Central nervous system

The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord.

Neuromuscular junction

A neuromuscular junction (or myoneural junction) is a chemical synapse formed by the contact between a motor neuron and a muscle fiber.

Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Myocyte Comparison

Excitatory postsynaptic potential has 32 relations, while Myocyte has 76. As they have in common 4, the Jaccard index is 3.70% = 4 / (32 + 76).
