Abstract The famous Hodgkin-Huxley circuit contains two time-varying resistors to describe
the electrophysiological characteristics of sodium and potassium ion channels. But the time …

In this article, we consider a class of neutral impulsive shunting inhibitory cellular neural
networks with time varying coefficients and leakage delays. We study the existence and the …

By re-examining the neuronal activity energy model, we show the inadequacies in the
current understanding of the energy consumption associated with neuron activity …

Mass transport through nanopores occurs in various natural systems, including the human
body. For example, ion transport across nerve cell membranes plays a significant role in …

Previous studies have suggested that changes in extracellular ion concentrations initiate the
transition from an activity state that characterizes sleep in cortical neurons to states that …

The glucose-excited neurons in brain can sense blood glucose levels and reflect different
firing states, which are mainly associated with regulation of blood glucose and energy …

The human brain is a complex network of connected neurons whose dynamics are difficult to
describe. Brain dynamics are the global manifestation of individual neuron dynamics and …

Ion transport at nanoscales plays an important role in the human body, including neural
signal transmission. We describe a self-assembled particle membrane (SAPM)-based …

Aim of review: Pain afflicts more than 1.5 billion people worldwide, with hundreds of millions
suffering from unrelieved chronic pain. Accumulating evidence suggests that satellite glial …

Action potentials (AP) are the unitary elements of information processing in the nervous
system. Understanding AP initiation mechanisms is a fundamental step in determining how …
