生理学上，动作电位（action potential, AP）就是特定细胞位置的膜电位迅速上升又迅速下降的过程<ref name=":3">{{cite journal | vauthors = Hodgkin AL, Huxley AF | title = A quantitative description of membrane current and its application to conduction and excitation in nerve | journal = The Journal of Physiology | volume = 117 | issue = 4 | pages = 500–44 | date = August 1952 | pmid = 12991237 | pmc = 1392413 | doi = 10.1113/jphysiol.1952.sp004764 }}</ref> ：这种去极化会导致相邻位置同样地去极化。动作电位可在神经元、肌肉细胞、内分泌细胞等类型的称为可兴奋细胞（excitable cells）的动物细胞以及某些植物细胞中发生。

在神经元中，动作电位在细胞与细胞之间的通讯中起着中心作用，它可以以跳跃式传导（saltatory conduction ）方式，协助神经信号沿着轴突向位于轴突末端的突触结传播；然后信号通过突触传递到其他神经元、运动细胞或腺体。在其他类型的细胞中，它们的主要功能是激活细胞内的反应过程。例如，在肌肉细胞中，动作电位是引起肌肉收缩的一系列事件的第一步。在胰腺的 β 细胞中，它们会刺激胰岛素的释放<ref name="pmid16464129" group="lower-alpha">{{cite journal | vauthors = MacDonald PE, Rorsman P | title = Oscillations, intercellular coupling, and insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells | journal = PLOS Biology | volume = 4 | issue = 2 | pages = e49 | date = February 2006 | pmid = 16464129 | pmc = 1363709 | doi = 10.1371/journal.pbio.0040049 }} {{open access}}</ref>。神经元的动作电位也被称为“神经冲动（neural impulse）”或“脉冲（spike）”，神经元产生的动作电位的时间序列被称为“动作电位序列（spike train）”。神经元发出动作电位或神经冲动，也常说神经在“发放（fire）”。

动作电位是由细胞质膜内嵌的特殊类型的电压门控离子通道（voltage-gated ion channel）产生的<ref name="pmid17515599" group="lower-alpha">{{cite journal | vauthors = Barnett MW, Larkman PM | title = The action potential | journal = Practical Neurology | volume = 7 | issue = 3 | pages = 192–7 | date = June 2007 | pmid = 17515599 | url = http://pn.bmj.com/content/7/3/192.short | url-status = live | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110708074452/http://pn.bmj.com/content/7/3/192.short | df = dmy-all | archive-date = 8 July 2011 }}</ref>。这些通道在膜电位处于细胞的静息电位（一个负数数值）附近时关闭，而在膜电位增加到精确定义的阈电位（threshold voltage）时迅速打开，从而使膜电位去极化<ref name="pmid17515599" group="lower-alpha" />。开放状态的通道让钠离子内流，改变电化学梯度，进而使膜电位趋升于零。这便导致更多的通道打开，产生更大的跨膜电流……这个过程爆发性地发生，直到所有可用的离子通道都打开，从而导致膜电位的大幅上升。钠离子的快速内流导致细胞质膜极性反转，随后离子通道迅速失活。随着钠离子通道的关闭，钠离子不再能进入神经元，然后以主动运输的方式被转运到质膜外。随后，钾离子通道被激活，产生一个外向的钾离子电流，使电化学梯度回到静息状态。动作电位发生后，会有短暂的负移，称为后超极化（afterhyperpolarization）。

有几类细胞可以产生动作电位，比如植物细胞、肌肉细胞和心脏中的特化细胞（在这些细胞中发生心肌动作电位）。然而，最主要的兴奋性细胞是神经元，其亦具有最简单的动作电位机制。

神经元是电兴奋型细胞，一般包含一个或多个树突、一个胞体、一个轴突以及一个或多个轴突末梢。树突是细胞的突起，其主要功能是接收突触信号。突触上的突起被称为树突棘，用来捕获突触前神经元释放的神经递质。其上分布有高密度的配体门控离子通道。这些棘有一个细细的颈部，连接球状突起和树突。这确保树突棘内部发生的变化不太可能影响邻近的树突棘。树突棘除了极少数例外情况（见 LTP），可以作为一个独立的单位工作。树突从胞体延伸出来，胞体是细胞核和许多“正常”的真核细胞器的所在。与树突棘不同，胞体的表面布满了电压可激活的离子通道。这些通道帮助传输由树突产生的信号。从胞体延伸出来的是轴丘。这个区域的特征是有非常高浓度的电压激活钠离子通道。一般认为它是动作电位的起始区，或触发区。在树突棘处产生的多个信号，经胞体传输而汇聚于此。轴丘之后便是轴突。这是一个从胞体中延伸出来的细管状突起。轴突被髓鞘（myelin）绝缘。髓鞘由神经胶质细胞组成，在外周神经系统是施万细胞，在中央神经系统为少突胶质细胞。虽然神经胶质细胞不参与电信号的传递，但可以与神经元通讯和提供重要的生化支持。具体来说，髓鞘绕着轴突多重包裹，形成一层厚厚的脂肪层，阻止离子进入或逃离轴突。这种绝缘可以避免信号发生剧烈的衰减，并确保信号更快速地传播；但同时会限制轴突表面，使其没有离子通道。因此，在轴突上每隔一段就会有块不带绝缘层的膜片。这些郎飞结（nodes of Ranvier）可以被认为是“迷你轴丘”，因为其目的是增强信号，以避免明显的信号衰减。在最远端，轴突失去绝缘的髓鞘，并开始分支成几个轴突末梢。这些突触前末梢，或称突触结（synaptic bouton），是突触前细胞轴突内的一个特殊区域，其中包含神经递质，这些神经递质被包装在称为突触小泡的膜包裹的小球内。

当动作电位传至突触前轴突末端（上部）时，它会导致神经递质分子的释放，这些分子打开突触后神经元中的离子通道（底部）。这些输入引起的兴奋性和抑制性突触后电位，在突触后神经元中整合引起新的动作电位。|链接=Special:FilePath/SynapseSchematic_en.svg]]

动作电位沿轴突的传播并止于突触结之前，要先在轴丘触发。基本的触发条件就是把轴丘的膜电位提高到动作电位发放的域值以上。存在几种去极化的方式。

===动作电位的动力学===

Action potentials are most commonly initiated by [[excitatory postsynaptic potential]]s from a presynaptic neuron.{{sfnm|1a1=Bullock|1a2=Orkand|1a3=Grinnell|1y=1977|1pp=177–240|2a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|2y=1997|2pp=490-499|3a1=Stevens|3y=1966|3p=47–68}} Typically, [[neurotransmitter]] molecules are released by the [[synapse|presynaptic]] [[neuron]]. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic cell. This binding opens various types of [[ion channel]]s. This opening has the further effect of changing the local permeability of the [[cell membrane]] and, thus, the membrane potential. If the binding increases the voltage （depolarizes the membrane）, the synapse is excitatory. If, however, the binding decreases the voltage （hyperpolarizes the membrane）, it is inhibitory. Whether the voltage is increased or decreased, the change propagates passively to nearby regions of the membrane （as described by the [[cable equation]] and its refinements）. Typically, the voltage stimulus decays exponentially with the distance from the synapse and with time from the binding of the neurotransmitter. Some fraction of an excitatory voltage may reach the [[axon hillock]] and may （in rare cases） depolarize the membrane enough to provoke a new action potential. More typically, the excitatory potentials from several synapses must [[spatial summation|work together]] at [[temporal summation|nearly the same time]] to provoke a new action potential. Their joint efforts can be thwarted, however, by the counteracting [[inhibitory postsynaptic potential]]s.

动作电位通常由突触前神经元引起的的兴奋性突触后电位引起。通常，神经递质分子由突触前神经元释放。这些神经递质随后与突触后细胞上的受体结合。这种结合打开了各种类型的离子通道。通道打开具有改变细胞膜局部通透性的进一步效果，从而改变了膜电位的通透性。如果结合增加电位（去极化膜），突触是兴奋性的。然而，如果这种结合降低了电压（使细胞膜超极化），它就是抑制。无论电压是升高还是降低，这种变化都会被动地传播到膜的附近区域（如电缆方程及其改进所描述的）。通常情况下，电压刺激随着与突触的距离和与神经递质结合的时间成指数衰减。兴奋性电压的一部分可能到达轴丘，并且（在少数情况下）使膜去极化，足以引起新的动作电位。更典型的是，来自几个突触的兴奋性电位必须在几乎同一时间共同激发一个新的动作电位。然而，他们的共同努力可能被反作用的抑制性突触后电位所阻遏。

Neurotransmission can also occur through [[electrical synapse]]s.{{sfnm|1a1=Bullock|1a2=Orkand|1a3=Grinnell|1y=1977|1pp=178–180|2a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|2y=1997|2pp=490-491}} Due to the direct connection between excitable cells in the form of [[gap junction]]s, an action potential can be transmitted directly from one cell to the next in either direction. The free flow of ions between cells enables rapid non-chemical-mediated transmission. Rectifying channels ensure that action potentials move only in one direction through an electrical synapse.{{Citation needed|date=May 2011}} Electrical synapses are found in all nervous systems, including the human brain, although they are a distinct minority.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2001}}

神经传导也可以通过电突触发生。由于可兴奋细胞之间以缝隙连接的形式存在直接联系，动作电位可以从一个细胞直接传递到下一个细胞。离子在细胞之间的自由流动使得非化学介导的快速传输成为可能。整流通道确保动作电位通过电突触向一个方向移动。电突触存在于所有神经系统中，包括人脑，尽管它们只是少数。

==="All-or-none" principle“全或无”原理===

The [[amplitude]] of an action potential is independent of the amount of current that produced it. In other words, larger currents do not create larger action potentials. Therefore, action potentials are said to be [[All-or-none law|all-or-none]] signals, since either they occur fully or they do not occur at all.<ref name=" Sasaki " group=lower-alpha>Sasaki, T., Matsuki, N., Ikegaya, Y. 2011 Action-potential modulation during axonal conduction Science 331 (6017), pp. 599–601</ref><ref name="Aur" group=lower-alpha>{{cite journal | vauthors = Aur D, Connolly CI, Jog MS | title = Computing spike directivity with tetrodes | journal = Journal of Neuroscience Methods | volume = 149 | issue = 1 | pages = 57–63 | date = November 2005 | pmid = 15978667 | doi = 10.1016/j.jneumeth.2005.05.006 | s2cid = 34131910 }}</ref><ref name="Aur, Jog" group=lower-alpha>Aur D., Jog, MS., 2010 Neuroelectrodynamics: Understanding the brain language, IOS Press, 2010. {{DOI|10.3233/978-1-60750-473-3-i}}</ref> This is in contrast to [[receptor potential]]s, whose amplitudes are dependent on the intensity of a stimulus.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|pp=26–28}} In both cases, the [[frequency]] of action potentials is correlated with the intensity of a stimulus.

动作电位的幅度与产生动作电位的电流量无关。换句话说，更大的电流不会产生更大的动作电位。因此，动作电位被称为全或无信号，因为它们要么完全发生，要么根本不发生。<ref name="Sasaki" group="lower-alpha" /><ref name="Aur" group="lower-alpha" /><ref name="Aur, Jog" group="lower-alpha" /> ~~这与受体电位不同，受体电位的幅度取决于刺激的强度。在这两种情况下，动作电位的频率都与刺激的强度相关。~~

===Sensory neurons 感觉神经元===

In [[sensory neurons]], an external signal such as pressure, temperature, light, or sound is coupled with the opening and closing of [[ion channels]], which in turn alter the ionic permeabilities of the membrane and its voltage.{{sfnm|1a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|1y=1997|1pp=535–580|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2pp=49–56, 76–93, 247–255|3a1=Stevens|3y=1966|3pp=69–79}} These voltage changes can again be excitatory （depolarizing） or inhibitory （hyperpolarizing） and, in some sensory neurons, their combined effects can depolarize the axon hillock enough to provoke action potentials. Some examples in humans include the [[olfactory receptor neuron]] and [[Meissner's corpuscle]], which are critical for the sense of [[olfaction|smell]] and [[somatosensory system|touch]], respectively. However, not all sensory neurons convert their external signals into action potentials; some do not even have an axon.{{sfnm|1a1=Bullock|1a2=Orkand|1a3=Grinnell|1y=1977|1pp=53|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2pp=122–124}} Instead, they may convert the signal into the release of a [[neurotransmitter]], or into continuous [[receptor potential|graded potentials]], either of which may stimulate subsequent neuron（s） into firing an action potential. For illustration, in the human [[ear]], [[hair cell]]s convert the incoming sound into the opening and closing of [[stretch-activated ion channel|mechanically gated ion channels]], which may cause [[neurotransmitter]] molecules to be released. In similar manner, in the human [[retina]], the initial [[photoreceptor cell]]s and the next layer of cells （comprising [[bipolar cell]]s and [[horizontal cell]]s） do not produce action potentials; only some [[amacrine cell]]s and the third layer, the [[Retinal ganglion cell|ganglion cell]]s, produce action potentials, which then travel up the [[optic nerve]].

在感觉神经元中，外部信号如压力、温度、光或声音与离子通道的开启和关闭相耦合，这反过来又改变了膜的离子通透性及其电压。这些电压变化可以是兴奋性（去极化）或抑制性（超极化），在某些感觉神经元中，它们的联合作用可以使轴丘去极化，足以激发动作电位。人类的一些例子包括嗅觉受器神经元和迈斯纳氏小体（），它们分别对嗅觉和触觉至关重要。然而，并不是所有的感觉神经元都将外部信号转换成动作电位，有些甚至没有轴突。而是，他们可以将信号转换成一种神经递质的释放，或者转换成连续级量的电位，这两种都可以刺激后续的神经元发出动作电位。例如，在人耳中，毛细胞将传入的声音转换成机械门控离子通道的开关，这可能导致神经递质分子的释放。同样，在人类视网膜中，感光的感光细胞和下一层的细胞（包括双极细胞和水平细胞）不产生动作电位，只有一些无长突细胞和第三层的神经节细胞产生动作电位，然后动作电位沿视神经传递。

===Pacemaker potentials 起搏电位===

第100行：第100行：

In sensory neurons, action potentials result from an external stimulus. However, some excitable cells require no such stimulus to fire: They spontaneously depolarize their axon hillock and fire action potentials at a regular rate, like an internal clock. The voltage traces of such cells are known as [[pacemaker potential]]s. The [[cardiac pacemaker]] cells of the [[sinoatrial node]] in the [[heart]] provide a good example.<ref name="noble_1960" group=lower-alpha >{{cite journal | vauthors = Noble D | title = Cardiac action and pacemaker potentials based on the Hodgkin-Huxley equations | journal = Nature | volume = 188 | issue = 4749 | pages = 495–7 | date = November 1960 | pmid = 13729365 | doi = 10.1038/188495b0 | bibcode = 1960Natur.188..495N | s2cid = 4147174 }}</ref> Although such pacemaker potentials have a [[neural oscillation|natural rhythm]], it can be adjusted by external stimuli; for instance, [[heart rate]] can be altered by pharmaceuticals as well as signals from the [[sympathetic nervous system|sympathetic]] and [[parasympathetic nervous system|parasympathetic]] nerves. The external stimuli do not cause the cell's repetitive firing, but merely alter its timing. In some cases, the regulation of frequency can be more complex, leading to patterns of action potentials, such as [[bursting]].

在感觉神经元中，动作电位来自外部刺激。然而，一些兴奋型细胞不需要这样的刺激就可以发放动作电位：它们自发地使轴丘去极化，并以一个规律的速率发放动作电位，就像一个内部时钟。这种细胞的电压描记称为起搏电位。心脏窦房结的心律起搏细胞就是一个很好的例子。<ref name="noble_1960" group="lower-alpha" /> 虽然这种起搏电位具有自然节律，但它可以通过外部刺激进行调节；例如，药物以及交感神经和副交感神经发出的信号可以改变心率。外部刺激不会引起细胞的反复放电，只是改变了它的放电频率。在某些情况下，频率的调节可能更加复杂，导致动作电位的发放模式，如爆发。

==Phases 动作电位的相位==

The course of the action potential can be divided into five parts: the rising phase, the peak phase, the falling phase, the undershoot phase, and the refractory period. During the rising phase the membrane potential depolarizes （becomes more positive）. The point at which [[depolarization]] stops is called the peak phase. At this stage, the membrane potential reaches a maximum. Subsequent to this, there is a falling phase. During this stage the membrane potential becomes more negative, returning towards resting potential. The undershoot, or [[afterhyperpolarization]], phase is the period during which the membrane potential temporarily becomes more negatively charged than when at rest （hyperpolarized）. Finally, the time during which a subsequent action potential is impossible or difficult to fire is called the [[refractory period (physiology)|refractory period]], which may overlap with the other phases.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=38}}

动作电位的过程可分为上升期、峰值期、下降期、下冲期和不应期（性）。在上升阶段，膜电位去极化（变得更加积极）。退极化停止的点称为峰值相位。在这个阶段，膜电位达到了最大值。在这之后，有一个下降的阶段。在这个阶段，膜电位变得更负，回到了静息电位。下极化或后超极化阶段是膜电位暂时变得比静止时更加负极化的时期（超极化）。最后，不可能或难以触发随后的动作电位的时间被称为不应期（性），它可能与其他阶段重叠。

动作电位的过程是由两个耦合的效应决定的。首先，膜电位的变化引起电压敏感离子通道的打开和关闭，进而改变了膜对这些离子的渗透性。其次，根据戈德曼方程，这种渗透率的变化改变了平衡电位 Em，从而改变了膜电位.<ref name="goldman_1943" group="lower-alpha" /> T。因此，膜电位影响渗透性，进而进一步影响膜电位。这就为正反馈提供了可能性，而正反馈是动作电位上升阶段的关键部分。一个复杂的因素是，单个离子通道可能有多个内部“门”，以相反的方式或不同的速率响应 Vm 中的变化.{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1pp=64–74|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2pp=149–150|3a1=Junge|3y=1981|3pp=84–85|4a1=Stevens|4y=1966|4pp=152–158}}<ref name="hodgkin_1952" group="lower-alpha" /> F<~~ref name="hodgkin_1952" group="lower-alpha"~~ />~~。例如，尽管提高 Vm~~ 可以打开电压敏感钠通道中的大多数门，但它也可以关闭通道的“失活门”，尽管速度更慢。因此，当 Vm 突然升高时，钠离子通道开始打开，但随后随着较慢的失活而关闭。

For a neuron at rest, there is a high concentration of sodium and chloride ions in the [[extracellular fluid]] compared to the [[intracellular fluid]], while there is a high concentration of potassium ions in the intracellular fluid compared to the extracellular fluid. The difference in concentrations, which causes ions to move [[Second law of thermodynamics|from a high to a low concentration]], and electrostatic effects （attraction of opposite charges） are responsible for the movement of ions in and out of the neuron. The inside of a neuron has a negative charge, relative to the cell exterior, from the movement of K+ out of the cell. The neuron membrane is more permeable to K+ than to other ions, allowing this ion to selectively move out of the cell, down its concentration gradient. This concentration gradient along with [[potassium leak channel]]s present on the membrane of the neuron causes an [[wikt:Special:Search/efflux|efflux]] of potassium ions making the resting potential close to ''E''K ≈ –75 mV.{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1p=34|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2p=134|3a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|3y=1997|3pp=478–480}} Since Na+ ions are in higher concentrations outside of the cell, the concentration and voltage differences both drive them into the cell when Na+ channels open. Depolarization opens both the sodium and potassium channels in the membrane, allowing the ions to flow into and out of the axon, respectively. If the depolarization is small （say, increasing ''Vm'' from −70 mV to −60 mV）, the outward potassium current overwhelms the inward sodium current and the membrane repolarizes back to its normal resting potential around −70 mV.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|pp=150–151}}{{sfn|Junge|1981|pp=89–90}}{{sfn|Schmidt-Nielsen|1997|p=484}} However, if the depolarization is large enough, the inward sodium current increases more than the outward potassium current and a runaway condition （[[positive feedback]]） results: the more inward current there is, the more ''Vm'' increases, which in turn further increases the inward current.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|pp=150–151}}{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1pp=48–49|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2p=141|3a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|3y=1997|3p=483|4a1=Junge|4y=1981|4p=89}} A sufficiently strong depolarization （increase in ''Vm''） causes the voltage-sensitive sodium channels to open; the increasing permeability to sodium drives ''Vm'' closer to the sodium equilibrium voltage ''E''Na≈ +55 mV. The increasing voltage in turn causes even more sodium channels to open, which pushes ''Vm'' still further towards ''E''Na. This positive feedback continues until the sodium channels are fully open and ''Vm'' is close to ''E''Na.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|pp=150–151}}{{sfn|Junge|1981|pp=89–90}}{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1pp=49–50|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2pp=140–141|3a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|3y=1997|3pp=480–481}}{{sfn|Schmidt-Nielsen|1997|pp=483–484}} The sharp rise in ''Vm'' and sodium permeability correspond to the ''rising phase'' of the action potential.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|pp=150–151}}{{sfn|Junge|1981|pp=89–90}}{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1pp=49–50|2a1=Bullock|2a2=Orkand|2a3=Grinnell|2y=1977|2pp=140–141|3a1=Schmidt-Nielsen|3y=1997|3pp=480–481}}{{sfn|Schmidt-Nielsen|1997|pp=483–484}}

The critical threshold voltage for this runaway condition is usually around −45 mV, but it depends on the recent activity of the axon. A cell that has just fired an action potential cannot fire another one immediately, since the Na+ channels have not recovered from the inactivated state. The period during which no new action potential can be fired is called the ''absolute refractory period''.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=49}}{{sfn|Stevens|1966|pp=19–20}}{{sfnm|1a1=Bullock|1a2=Orkand|1a3=Grinnell|1y=1977|1p=151|2a1=Junge|2y=1981|2pp=4–5}} At longer times, after some but not all of the ion channels have recovered, the axon can be stimulated to produce another action potential, but with a higher threshold, requiring a much stronger depolarization, e.g., to −30 mV.

===Peak phase 峰值相===

The positive feedback of the rising phase slows and comes to a halt as the sodium ion channels become maximally open. At the peak of the action potential, the sodium permeability is maximized and the membrane voltage ''Vm'' is nearly equal to the sodium equilibrium voltage ''E''Na. However, the same raised voltage that opened the sodium channels initially also slowly shuts them off, by closing their pores; the sodium channels become ''inactivated''.{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1p=47|2a1=Purves|2a2=Augustine|2a3=Fitzpatrick|2a4=Hall|2y=2008|2p=65|3a1=Bullock|3a2=Orkand|3a3=Grinnell|3y=1977|3pp=147–148|4a1=Stevens|4y=1966|4p=128}} This lowers the membrane's permeability to sodium relative to potassium, driving the membrane voltage back towards the resting value. At the same time, the raised voltage opens voltage-sensitive potassium channels; the increase in the membrane's potassium permeability drives ''Vm'' towards ''E''K.{{sfnm|1a1=Purves|1a2=Augustine|1a3=Fitzpatrick|1a4=Hall|1y=2008|1p=47|2a1=Purves|2a2=Augustine|2a3=Fitzpatrick|2a4=Hall|2y=2008|2p=65|3a1=Bullock|3a2=Orkand|3a3=Grinnell|3y=1977|3pp=147–148|4a1=Stevens|4y=1966|4p=128}} Combined, these changes in sodium and potassium permeability cause ''Vm'' to drop quickly, repolarizing the membrane and producing the "falling phase" of the action potential.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=49}}{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|p=152}}{{sfn|Schmidt-Nielsen|1997|pp=483–484}}{{sfnm|1a1=Bullock|1a2=Orkand|1a3=Grinnell|1y=1977|1pp=147–149|2a1=Stevens|2y=1966|2pp=126–127}}

当钠离子通道最大程度地开放时，上升相的正反馈减慢并停止。在动作电位的峰值，钠离子的渗透性最大，膜电位的电压几乎等于钠离子的平衡电压 ENa。然而，最初打开钠离子通道的升高的电压也会通过关闭它们的孔而慢慢关闭它们; 钠离子通道变得不活跃。这降低了细胞膜相对于钾离子的钠离子通透性，使膜电位重新回到静息值。同时，升高的电压开启了电压敏感性钾离子通道，膜钾离子通透性的增加促使 Vm 向 EK 方向运动。这些钠和钾通透性的变化使 Vm 迅速下降，使膜再极化，产生动作电位的“下降相”。

===后超极化===

The depolarized voltage opens additional voltage-dependent potassium channels, and some of these do not close right away when the membrane returns to its normal resting voltage. In addition, [[SK channel|further potassium channels]] open in response to the influx of calcium ions during the action potential. The intracellular concentration of potassium ions is transiently unusually low, making the membrane voltage ''Vm'' even closer to the potassium equilibrium voltage ''E''K. The membrane potential goes below the resting membrane potential. Hence, there is an undershoot or [[hyperpolarization (biology)|hyperpolarization]], termed an [[afterhyperpolarization]], that persists until the membrane potassium permeability returns to its usual value, restoring the membrane potential to the resting state.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=37}}{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|p=152}}

去极化电位打开了额外的电压依赖性钾离子通道，当膜恢复到正常的静息电位时，其中一些通道不会马上关闭。此外，在动作电位过程中，钙离子内流会促使更多的钾离子通道打开。细胞内钾离子浓度瞬时变得极低，使膜电位 ''Vm'' 更加接近钾离子平衡电压 ''E''K。膜电位会低于静息膜电位。因此，存在一个被称负冲（undershoot）或超极化称为后超极化（ afterhyperpolarization），持续到膜钾通透性恢复到正常值，恢复膜电位到静息状态。

===不应期Refractory period===

Each action potential is followed by a [[refractory period (physiology)|refractory period]], which can be divided into an ''absolute refractory period'', during which it is impossible to evoke another action potential, and then a ''relative refractory period'', during which a stronger-than-usual stimulus is required.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=49}}{{sfn|Stevens|1966|pp=19–20}}{{sfnm|1a1=Bullock|1a2=Orkand|1a3=Grinnell|1y=1977|1p=151|2a1=Junge|2y=1981|2pp=4–5}} These two refractory periods are caused by changes in the state of sodium and potassium channel molecules. When closing after an action potential, sodium channels enter an [[Sodium channel#Gating|"inactivated" state]], in which they cannot be made to open regardless of the membrane potential—this gives rise to the absolute refractory period. Even after a sufficient number of sodium channels have transitioned back to their resting state, it frequently happens that a fraction of potassium channels remains open, making it difficult for the membrane potential to depolarize, and thereby giving rise to the relative refractory period. Because the density and subtypes of potassium channels may differ greatly between different types of neurons, the duration of the relative refractory period is highly variable.

The absolute refractory period is largely responsible for the unidirectional propagation of action potentials along axons.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=56}} At any given moment, the patch of axon behind the actively spiking part is refractory, but the patch in front, not having been activated recently, is capable of being stimulated by the depolarization from the action potential.

==Propagation==

The action potential generated at the axon hillock propagates as a wave along the axon.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|pp=160–164}} The currents flowing inwards at a point on the axon during an action potential spread out along the axon, and depolarize the adjacent sections of its membrane. If sufficiently strong, this depolarization provokes a similar action potential at the neighboring membrane patches. This basic mechanism was demonstrated by [[Alan Lloyd Hodgkin]] in 1937. After crushing or cooling nerve segments and thus blocking the action potentials, he showed that an action potential arriving on one side of the block could provoke another action potential on the other, provided that the blocked segment was sufficiently short.<ref group="lower-alpha" name=":1">{{cite journal | vauthors = Hodgkin AL | title = Evidence for electrical transmission in nerve: Part I | journal = The Journal of Physiology | volume = 90 | issue = 2 | pages = 183–210 | date = July 1937 | pmid = 16994885 | pmc = 1395060 | doi = 10.1113/jphysiol.1937.sp003507 | author-link = Alan Lloyd Hodgkin }} * {{cite journal | vauthors = Hodgkin AL | title = Evidence for electrical transmission in nerve: Part II | journal = The Journal of Physiology | volume = 90 | issue = 2 | pages = 211–32 | date = July 1937 | pmid = 16994886 | pmc = 1395062 | doi = 10.1113/jphysiol.1937.sp003508 | author-link = Alan Lloyd Hodgkin }}</ref>

轴突柄处产生的动作电位沿轴突传播。当动作电位沿轴突扩散时，电流在轴突上的某一点向内流动，并使其膜的相邻部分去极化。如果足够强的话，这种去极化会在相邻的膜片上激发类似的动作电位。这一基本机制在1937年由艾伦·劳埃德·霍奇金证明。在挤压或冷却神经节段，从而阻断动作电位后，他表明，动作电位到达阻滞的一侧可以激发另一侧的动作电位，只要阻滞的节段足够短。rt.<ref name=":1" group="lower-alpha" /> *

Once an action potential has occurred at a patch of membrane, the membrane patch needs time to recover before it can fire again. At the molecular level, this ''absolute refractory period'' corresponds to the time required for the voltage-activated sodium channels to recover from inactivation, i.e., to return to their closed state.{{sfn|Stevens|1966|pp=19–20}} There are many types of voltage-activated potassium channels in neurons. Some of them inactivate fast （A-type currents） and some of them inactivate slowly or not inactivate at all; this variability guarantees that there will be always an available source of current for repolarization, even if some of the potassium channels are inactivated because of preceding depolarization. On the other hand, all neuronal voltage-activated sodium channels inactivate within several milliseconds during strong depolarization, thus making following depolarization impossible until a substantial fraction of sodium channels have returned to their closed state. Although it limits the frequency of firing,{{sfn|Stevens|1966|pp=21–23}} the absolute refractory period ensures that the action potential moves in only one direction along an axon.{{sfn|Purves|Augustine|Fitzpatrick|Hall|2008|p=56}} The currents flowing in due to an action potential spread out in both directions along the axon.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|pp=161–164}} However, only the unfired part of the axon can respond with an action potential; the part that has just fired is unresponsive until the action potential is safely out of range and cannot restimulate that part. In the usual [[orthodromic conduction]], the action potential propagates from the axon hillock towards the synaptic knobs （the axonal termini）; propagation in the opposite direction—known as [[antidromic conduction]]—is very rare.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|p=509}} However, if a laboratory axon is stimulated in its middle, both halves of the axon are "fresh", i.e., unfired; then two action potentials will be generated, one traveling towards the axon hillock and the other traveling towards the synaptic knobs.

一旦膜片上的一个动作电位发生了，膜片需要时间恢复才能再次激活。在分子水平上，这个绝对不应期（性）相当于电压激活的钠离子通道从失活状态恢复到闭合状态所需的时间。神经元中存在多种类型的电压激活钾通道。其中一些快速电流（a 型电流）失活，一些慢速失活或根本不失活; 这种变化保证了总有可用的复极电流来源，即使一些钾离子通道由于先前的去极化作用而失活。另一方面，在强去极化过程中，所有神经元电压激活钠通道在几毫秒内停止活动，从而使去极化不可能发生，直到相当一部分的钠通道恢复到它们的闭合状态。虽然它限制了放电的频率，但绝对不应期（性）电位确保了动作电位沿轴突只向一个方向移动。由于动作电位的作用，电流沿轴突向两个方向扩散。然而，只有轴突未激活的部分才能作出动作电位的反应; 刚刚激活的部分是没有反应的，直到动作电位安全地超出范围，不能再次激活该部分。在通常的正向传导中，动作电位从轴突柄向突触结节（轴突终端）传导，向相反方向传导的现象非常罕见。然而，如果一个实验室的轴突在它的中间被刺激，两半的轴突都是“新鲜的”，也就是说，没有被刺激，那么两个动作电位就会产生，一个朝向轴突小丘，另一个朝向突触结节。

===髓鞘和跳跃式传导Myelin and saltatory conduction===

In order to enable fast and efficient transduction of electrical signals in the nervous system, certain neuronal axons are covered with [[myelin]] sheaths. Myelin is a multilamellar membrane that enwraps the axon in segments separated by intervals known as [[nodes of Ranvier]]. It is produced by specialized cells: [[Schwann cell]]s exclusively in the [[peripheral nervous system]], and [[oligodendrocyte]]s exclusively in the [[central nervous system]].

Myelin prevents ions from entering or leaving the axon along myelinated segments. As a general rule, myelination increases the [[conduction velocity]] of action potentials and makes them more energy-efficient. Whether saltatory or not, the mean conduction velocity of an action potential ranges from 1 [[Metre per second|meter per second]] （m/s） to over 100 m/s, and, in general, increases with axonal diameter.<ref name="hursh_1939" group=lower-alpha>{{cite journal | vauthors = Hursh JB | year = 1939 | title = Conduction velocity and diameter of nerve fibers | journal = American Journal of Physiology | volume = 127 | pages = 131–39| doi = 10.1152/ajplegacy.1939.127.1.131 }}</ref>

Action potentials cannot propagate through the membrane in myelinated segments of the axon. However, the current is carried by the cytoplasm, which is sufficient to depolarize the first or second subsequent [[node of Ranvier]]. Instead, the ionic current from an action potential at one [[node of Ranvier]] provokes another action potential at the next node; this apparent "hopping" of the action potential from node to node is known as [[saltatory conduction]].

Myelin has two important advantages: fast conduction speed and energy efficiency. For axons larger than a minimum diameter （roughly 1 [[micrometre]]）, myelination increases the [[conduction velocity]] of an action potential, typically tenfold.<ref name="hartline_2007" group=lower-alpha /> Conversely, for a given conduction velocity, myelinated fibers are smaller than their unmyelinated counterparts. For example, action potentials move at roughly the same speed （25 m/s） in a myelinated frog axon and an unmyelinated [[squid giant axon]], but the frog axon has a roughly 30-fold smaller diameter and 1000-fold smaller cross-sectional area. Also, since the ionic currents are confined to the nodes of Ranvier, far fewer ions "leak" across the membrane, saving metabolic energy. This saving is a significant [[natural selection|selective advantage]], since the human nervous system uses approximately 20% of the body's metabolic energy.<ref name="hartline_2007" group=lower-alpha>{{cite journal | vauthors = Hartline DK, Colman DR | title = Rapid conduction and the evolution of giant axons and myelinated fibers | journal = Current Biology | volume = 17 | issue = 1 | pages = R29-35 | date = January 2007 | pmid = 17208176 | doi = 10.1016/j.cub.2006.11.042 | s2cid = 10033356 | doi-access = free }}</ref>

The length of axons' myelinated segments is important to the success of saltatory conduction. They should be as long as possible to maximize the speed of conduction, but not so long that the arriving signal is too weak to provoke an action potential at the next node of Ranvier. In nature, myelinated segments are generally long enough for the passively propagated signal to travel for at least two nodes while retaining enough amplitude to fire an action potential at the second or third node. Thus, the [[safety factor]] of saltatory conduction is high, allowing transmission to bypass nodes in case of injury. However, action potentials may end prematurely in certain places where the safety factor is low, even in unmyelinated neurons; a common example is the branch point of an axon, where it divides into two axons.{{sfn|Bullock|Orkand|Grinnell|1977|p=163}}

轴突有髓神经节段的长度对跳跃式传导的成功至关重要。它们应该尽可能长，以最大限度地提高传导速度，但不能太长，以至于到达的信号太弱，无法在兰维叶的下一个节点激发动作电位。在自然界中，有髓节段通常足够长，使传播的被动信号传播至少两个节点，同时保持足够的振幅，在第二或第三节点激发动作电位。因此，跳跃式传导的安全系数很高，在受伤的情况下可以通过旁路传播。然而，动作电位可能在安全系数较低的某些地方过早终止，甚至在无髓神经元中也是如此; 一个常见的例子是轴突的分支点，在那里它分裂成两个轴突。

These time and length-scales can be used to understand the dependence of the conduction velocity on the diameter of the neuron in unmyelinated fibers. For example, the time-scale τ increases with both the membrane resistance ''rm'' and capacitance ''cm''. As the capacitance increases, more charge must be transferred to produce a given transmembrane voltage （by [[capacitance|the equation ''Q'' = ''CV'']]）; as the resistance increases, less charge is transferred per unit time, making the equilibration slower. In a similar manner, if the internal resistance per unit length ''ri'' is lower in one axon than in another （e.g., because the radius of the former is larger）, the spatial decay length λ becomes longer and the [[conduction velocity]] of an action potential should increase. If the transmembrane resistance ''rm'' is increased, that lowers the average "leakage" current across the membrane, likewise causing ''λ'' to become longer, increasing the conduction velocity.

这些时间尺度和长度尺度可以用来理解传导速度与无髓纤维神经元直径的关系。例如，时间尺度 τ 随着膜电阻 rm 和膜电容 cm 的增大而增大。随着电容的增加，必须转移更多的电荷才能产生给定的跨膜电压（用 q = CV 方程式） ~~; 随着电阻的增加，每单位时间转移的电荷越少，平衡速度越慢。同样，如果一个轴突的单位长度~~ ri 内阻低于另一个轴突（例如，因为前者的半径较大），空间衰减长度 λ 变长，动作电位的传导速度应该增加。如果跨膜电阻 rm 增大，则降低了跨膜平均“泄漏”电流，同样导致 λ 变长，增加了传导速度。

===肌肉动作电位 Muscular action potentials===

The action potential in a normal skeletal muscle cell is similar to the action potential in neurons.{{sfn|Ganong|1991|pp=59–60}} Action potentials result from the depolarization of the cell membrane （the [[sarcolemma]]）, which opens voltage-sensitive sodium channels; these become inactivated and the membrane is repolarized through the outward current of potassium ions. The resting potential prior to the action potential is typically −90mV, somewhat more negative than typical neurons. The muscle action potential lasts roughly 2–4 ms, the absolute refractory period is roughly 1–3 ms, and the conduction velocity along the muscle is roughly 5 m/s. The action potential releases [[calcium]] ions that free up the [[tropomyosin]] and allow the muscle to contract. Muscle action potentials are provoked by the arrival of a pre-synaptic neuronal action potential at the [[neuromuscular junction]], which is a common target for [[neurotoxin]]s.<ref name=Newmark group=lower-alpha />

The initial influx of calcium ions also poses a small cellular depolarization, causing the voltage-gated ion channels to open and allowing full depolarization to be propagated by chloride ions.

However, the flytrap doesn't close after one trigger. Instead, it requires the activation of 2 or more hairs.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> If only one hair is triggered, it throws the activation as a false positive. Further, the second hair must be activated within a certain time interval （0.75 s - 40 s） for it to register with the first activation.<ref name=":2" /> Thus, a buildup of calcium starts and slowly falls from the first trigger. When the second action potential is fired within the time interval, it reaches the Calcium threshold to depolarize the cell, closing the trap on the prey within a fraction of a second.<ref name=":2" />

Given its conservation throughout evolution, the action potential seems to confer evolutionary advantages. One function of action potentials is rapid, long-range signaling within the organism; the conduction velocity can exceed 110 m/s, which is one-third the [[speed of sound]]. For comparison, a hormone molecule carried in the bloodstream moves at roughly 8 m/s in large arteries. Part of this function is the tight coordination of mechanical events, such as the contraction of the heart. A second function is the computation associated with its generation. Being an all-or-none signal that does not decay with transmission distance, the action potential has similar advantages to [[digital electronics]]. The integration of various dendritic signals at the axon hillock and its thresholding to form a complex train of action potentials is another form of computation, one that has been exploited biologically to form [[central pattern generator]]s and mimicked in [[artificial neural network]]s.

鉴于动作电位在整个进化过程中的保守性，它似乎赋予了进化优势。动作电位的一个功能是在生物体内快速的远程信号传导，传导速度可以超过110米/秒，这是声速的三分之一。相比之下，血液中携带的荷尔蒙分子在大动脉中的运动速度大约为每秒8米。这个功能的一部分是机械事件的紧密协调，例如心脏的收缩。第二个函数是与其生成相关的计算。动作电位作为一种全或无信号，不随传输距离衰减，与数字电子技术具有相似的优点。轴突小丘上各种树突信号的整合及其阈值化形成一系列复杂的动作电位是另一种形式的计算方法，这种方法已被生物学方法用来形成中心模式发生器，并在人工神经网络中进行模拟。

The study of action potentials has required the development of new experimental methods. The initial work, prior to 1955, was carried out primarily by [[Alan Lloyd Hodgkin]] and [[Andrew Fielding Huxley]], who were, along [[John Carew Eccles]], awarded the 1963 [[Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine]] for their contribution to the description of the ionic basis of nerve conduction. It focused on three goals: isolating signals from single neurons or axons, developing fast, sensitive electronics, and shrinking [[electrode]]s enough that the voltage inside a single cell could be recorded.

In 1902 and again in 1912, [[Julius Bernstein]] advanced the hypothesis that the action potential resulted from a change in the [[permeation|permeability]] of the axonal membrane to ions.<ref name="bernstein_1902_1912" group="lower-alpha">{{cite journal | vauthors = Bernstein J | year = 1902 | title = Untersuchungen zur Thermodynamik der bioelektrischen Ströme | journal = Pflügers Archiv für die gesamte Physiologie | volume = 92 | pages = 521–562 | doi = 10.1007/BF01790181 | issue = 10–12| s2cid = 33229139 | author-link = Julius Bernstein | url = https://zenodo.org/record/2192363 }}</ref>{{sfn|Bernstein|1912}} Bernstein's hypothesis was confirmed by [[Kenneth Stewart Cole|Ken Cole]] and Howard Curtis, who showed that membrane conductance increases during an action potential.<ref group="lower-alpha" name=":16">{{cite journal | vauthors = Cole KS, Curtis HJ | title = Electric Impedance of the Squid Giant Axon During Activity | journal = The Journal of General Physiology | volume = 22 | issue = 5 | pages = 649–70 | date = May 1939 | pmid = 19873125 | pmc = 2142006 | doi = 10.1085/jgp.22.5.649 | author-link1 = Kenneth Stewart Cole }}</ref> In 1907, [[Louis Lapicque]] suggested that the action potential was generated as a threshold was crossed,<ref group="lower-alpha" name=":17">{{cite journal | vauthors = Lapicque L | year = 1907 | title = Recherches quantitatives sur l'excitationelectrique des nerfs traitee comme une polarisation | journal = J.
