Great video. I am however skeptical of Dr. Rishi's credentials of actually being a Dr. His handwriting is way too good for him to have a M.D.....

You really helped in making med school a bit easier! Thanks so much!

Good drawings--not too cluttered, easy to read and follow. Also the material was broken up well (parts 1 and 2). Very helpful and well-made presentation, thank you very much!

helping me very much at college! thanks man

The most underrated video in youtube talking about this topic

:) I learn many things and the lectures are very clear, excellent. But I was surprised to see that lecturer said that he doesn't know where V comes from. This is of course because of concepst shared in different disciplines and normal. V comes from voltage, equation comes from Nerns Equation. I am studying electrochemistry and my discipline is chemical engineering he is a doctor, this is normal. Besides this as a medical doctor he teaches better than most of the chemists :)

What software are you using to draw on screen for this presentation? Thank you.

This was really helpful. Cheers.

You are a genuis! thanks!! made my day!

Fantastic! Thanks a lot!!

Funny how people jump at any opportunity to be appear smarter than what they really are. Yes, we all know the unit for potentials is voltage and that the "M" in Vm stands for "membrane." He clearly had a blonde moment (yes, I know he's not blonde) and caused no harm in the process, because there was no misinformation. You're becoming a doctor via KZread. If you can't tolerate moments like this, then I suggest you read a textbook instead.

but also I think we should note that the permeability of sodium at resting membrane potential is very low so we would have to assume that its impermeable to it , most of sodium channels are closed , so sodium has no effect on the membrane potential...but potassium channels are more opened , which gives assumption to that its the only cation permeable hence its major contribution to the creation of the membrane potential

Helpful thanks

This video saved me from going insane. Thanks.

when you add the positive charge, then you get to -42 and then climbs back up to -92mv again when the K+ leaves the cell. But if you keep repeating this, the equilibrium potential eventually decrease

First of all thanks for that explanation And I want to ask you ,if you can explain to me why don't we have an membrane potential of there is a concentration gradient but there is no permeability ??? Because at that point we will have more potassium (inside or outside whatever ) and according to that it must create a membrane potential !??!!!

to all of you who wonder how electroneutrality is maintained even though there is sodium involved and should contribute to the change. It's very simple, equation in the video is only correct if we assume that there is only one type of ion, so if we would take for example sodium to consideration we would need to use different equation which is called goldman hodgin katz equation. So equation in the video (which is btw called nernst equation) gives us a clue what would happen if there was an excess of K+ ions inside the membrane compared to other ions so the membrane potential would shift towards the -92mV...thats the biological significance of nernst equation. So to put it together, if you want to calculate actual membrane potential of thr cell - use katz equation and if you want to calculate membrane potential if only one ion was present - use nernst equation (the one in the video).

A good example for that are glial cells. So to put it together, if you want to calculate actual membrane potential of the cell - use katz equation and if you want to calculate membrane potential if the cell is only permeable to one ion - use nernst equation (the one in the video).

He said millivolts around 2:15. He knows that V stands for voltage. I just think he isn't sure like how to derive the V or something.

How u can do these drawing?

love it

thanks

If this is how to calculate membrane potentials, then what is the goldman equation for? cuz they give different answers.

6:26 doesn't the V comes from Voltage ? Seems to me that membrane potential is actually a voltage (potential difference) btwn the inside and the outside of the cell.

Vm = memb. Potential or simply membrane Voltage sir !

but surely if the K+ ions enter back when the charge increases back to -92mV, the charge will then decrease again because the anions are now being cancelled out by the new K+ ions and not contributing to the overall negative charge?

Equilibrium potential = Reversal potential?

potential difference is also called as voltage which has a sign of "V".

funky stuff hunh ?

Vm comes from membrane's Voltage (potential)

If you're injecting positive ions...but they aren't permeable...then they will permanently be trapped inside the cell. And if they are inside the cell they will neutralize some of the negative protein anions. Thus the potential membrane potential will be less...because the -92 is due largely to the number of anions. But if these positive ions are neutralizing some of these protein anions, they won't be able to drive the potential back down....unless the cell instantly creates more proteins with negative charge.

@8:20 it looks like a smiling stick figure (the one with two positive charges)

Why the hell would anyone dislike his videos?

4:25 Is he Satan's Physician?

How is electroneutrality maintained in the cell? If the diffusion of K+ out leaves a equilibrium potential within the cell which is slightly offset by the Na+ equilibrium potential thereby generating a membrane potential, wouldn't the charge inside the cell be different than the charge outside the cell? Or, is it just that the charge difference is a result of the location of accumulation of charge, ie. near the surface of the membrane. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

in chapter 2, pg 32, in the 5th ed of Purves' Neuroscience, it states that while the flow of ions is enough to change membrane potential, the amounts are so small that the overall concentrations in both extracell & intracell compartments remain the same, thus maintaining electroneutrality. and to add to that, you have more than one species of ions interacting, that are equal and opposite (k+ & cl- for example.). so really the charge inside the cell that is enough to change Vm is just in the membranes proximity.

V comes from Volts, but E might be more appropriate.

No V comes from' Voltage 'actually

Even if you change the permeability to one ion, wouldn't the equilibrium potential stay the same? (ref to about 3:55). Changing the permeability (I think) would only change the rate of attaining equilibrium potential, not the eventual value.

@jokertangotj7397

yeah if you're injecting positive ions it seems like the potential would change because you can't create more negative proteins instantly

V is voltage

I guess the V comes from 'voltage'?

Here it feels like charge and voltage are treated as the same thing.... I thought they were 2 completely different concepts. Can someone explain?

@rxmcgree

+Michael Chait They are not the same thing but nor are they completely different concepts as a difference in charge is here the basis for the voltage (potential difference). Charge is dictated by the relative numbers of protons and electrons in an ion: a neutral atom of potassium 'K' readily loses an electron to form a cation, the more stable positive K+ ion; or a neutral atom of chlorine gains an electron to form a anion, the more stable negative Cl- ion. When you have more cations than anions in one place you talk about a region of positive charge. Conversely, if you have more anions than cations you have a negative charge. If you watch the video again you will see that the cell membrane is permeable to K+ ions and due to the concentration gradient they move out of the cell with their positive charge. The voltage is created because with the net movement of these positive ions the membrane inside the cell is left slightly negative having lost them, and on the outside it is slightly positive having gained them. This difference in charge across the membrane is what is shown by the voltage of -92mV. Hope that helps.

sorry about that what the number 61.5 represents for ? & the log .. do me a favour & remind me of it I'm not good at maths

61,5 = (R * T) / (z * F). R = gas constant (8,31 J/mol*K) T = temperature (310 K = 37 C = body temperature) z = valence of the ion (+1 for potassium) F = faraday constant (96500 C/mol)

6:25 I'm not sure if this is a joke or you're being serious but I really hope you know the "V" stands for "voltage"...

+ammar yasir Okay I'll walk you through the formula used. They use the Nernst equation. There are three constants in that equation R, T and F. So you know they will never change. So they are allready substituted it in the equation from the begging (This is the 61.5 in the video). This makes it easy seeing that you do not have the redo all three substitutions, you'd rather just remember the value they make. You can go test it. Google the nernst equation, take (RT)/(F) and just substitute all of the constants in and then see the value you get. It should be about 61.5. The Z is the valency. It can be read of the periodic table. As you are supposed to know all group 1 elements have an valency of +1 and group 2 has an valency of +2. So for the Ca the 61.5 will be divided by 2 and thats how they get the 30.75. Nernst equation (Vk)= (RT)/(zF).ln[k out]/[K in] Thumbs up if this correct!
