End plate spondylotic lipping refers to the formation of bony outgrowths on the edges of the spinal vertebrae due to degenerative changes in the spine, typically seen in the aging population. It is often associated with osteoarthritis and can contribute to symptoms such as Back pain and stiffness. Management usually involves conservative measures like physical therapy, medications, and lifestyle modifications.

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.


Is curare poisoning affected by the motor end plate or the axon terminal?

Curare poisoning affects the motor end plate. Curare blocks nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on muscle cells at the neuromuscular junction, preventing the binding of acetylcholine and leading to muscle paralysis.


What is discogenic end plate?

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.

What is degenerative lipping?

Degenerative is an (usually) irreversible, progressive process in which body tissues deteriorate over time. Lipping is an overgrowth of the bone joints that is a symptom of degenerative or inflammatory joint disease. So degenerative lipping would be irreversible bone joint deterioration and overgrowth.
