The discogenic end plate is the interface between the intervertebral disc and the adjacent vertebral bone. It plays a role in nutrient exchange between the disc and the vertebral body. Damage or degeneration of the discogenic end plate can contribute to disc-related symptoms and conditions.

Is end plate current the same as end plate potential?

No, end plate current of excitatory post-synaptic current(EPSC) represents the sum of the currents through thousands of AChRs in the postsynaptic membrane. The end-plate potential or Excitatory post-synaptic potential(EPSP) is the local depolarisation at the post-synaptic membrane which eventually results in an action potential at the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. EPSP is much slower than the EPSC because of the time necessary to charge and discharge the capacitance of the muscle membrane. Hope this helps, there is a lot more detail in the notes we were given which I'll be happy to share if you need it.


What is the growth plate also known as?

The epiphyseal plate is an area at the long end of the bone which contains growing bone. It is located between the epiphysis at the end of the bone and the diaphysis of another bone. This is only found in children and adolescents as it turns into the epiphyseal line in adults.

What is discogenic sclerosis?

Discogenic sclerosis is the area of wear and tear to a bone in the back. The deterioration of the discs can cause severe back pain.


What are discogenic changes?

Discogenic changes refer to structural alterations in the intervertebral discs of the spine. These changes can include degeneration, bulging, herniation, or tears in the discs, which can lead to symptoms such as back pain, sciatica, or nerve compression. Discogenic changes are a common cause of spine-related issues and can be diagnosed through imaging studies such as MRI.
