abstract = {To exchange and process information cells rely mostly on
biochemical signalling pathways. Since these pathways are
not well suited to rapidly transmit signals over larger
distances, neurons use electrical activity in addition,
exploiting the energy stored in the electrical gradients
across cellular membranes. These gradients result from the
uneven distribution of ions between the intra- and
extracellular space due to the ongoing activity of ion
transporters and pumps and the fact that the membrane is
semipermeable for certain ions. The resulting membrane
potential allows for fast flow of ions across cellular
membranes via specialized classes of membrane-spanning
proteins, namely ion channels. In neurons, some of these
channels are voltage-gated, creating an electrical feedback
loop that can generate stereotyped, regenerative
depolarizing responses. Voltage-gated channels mediate the
generation and conduction of action potentials and the
release of transmitters at the synapse.},
