Transient receptor potential channel-interacting protein database was created in 2010.
factors that influences conductivities of action potential
Sensory receptor located at the distal end of a neuron or an associated sensory structure. When stimulated it creates a receptor potential, when that reaches its threshold, it will trigger 1 or more nerve impulses in the sensory neuron.
generator potential
estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, interleukin-2 receptor, and epidermal growth factor receptor.
A serpentine receptor is a receptor in the cell membrane that plays a role in signal transduction.
it is
A receptor (protein) on a neuron that receives stimulus (light, pressure, chemical...etc). The stimulus generates a receptor potential (local disturbance/slight depolarization in membrane potential).
Receptor potential or generator potential.
Receptor potential or generator potential.
Yes, Graded potentials (otherwise known as postsynaptic potentials) can form on receptor endings.
Receptor potential, a type of graded potential, is the transmembrane potential difference of a sensory receptor. A receptor potential is often produced by sensory transduction. It is generally a depolarizing event resulting from inward current flow. The influx of current will often bring the membrane potential of the sensory receptor towards the threshold for triggering an action potential. A receptor potential is a form of graded potential, as is a generator potential. It arises when the receptors of a stimulus are separate cells. An example of this is in a taste bud, where taste is converted into an electrical signal sent to the brain. When stimulated the taste bud triggers the release of neurotransmitter through exocytosis of synaptic vesicles from the presynaptic membrane. The neurotransmitter molecules diffuse across the synaptic cleft to the postsynaptic membrane. A postsynaptic potential is then produced in the first order neuron, and if the stimulus is strong enough to reach threshold this may generate an action potential which may propagate along the axon into the central nervous system

A rubefacient is a substance for external application that produces redness of the skin e.g. by causing dilation of the capillaries and an increase in blood circulation. They are believed to relieve pain by a counterirritant effect, and many act via transient receptor potential ion channels.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubefacient

Hormones are ligands that bond to cells and carry a specific receptor. The ligand bonds its receptor to form a complex that acquires a purpose. The ligand triggers a change in the receptor, which activates a potential biological function. Cells that do not exhibit the receptor never receive the signal.
