Unique ID: D053444
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D053444
Annotation: for miniature inhibitory postsynaptic potentials coordinate with MINIATURE POSTSYNAPTIC POTENTIALS
Scope Note: Hyperpolarization of membrane potentials at the SYNAPTIC MEMBRANES of target neurons during NEUROTRANSMISSION. They are local changes which diminish responsiveness to excitatory signals.
Entry Term(s): IPSP; Inhibitory Postsynaptic Currents
