A distributed-parameter model of the myelinated human motor nerve fibre: temporal and spatial distributions of action potentials and ionic currents

Abstract: A double cable model of the myelinated human motor nerve fibre is presented. The model is based on the nodal and internodal channels in a previous, two-component model of human motor axons (Bostock et al. 1991), added to a complex extended cable structure of nodal, paranodal and internodal segments. The model assumes a high-resistance myelin sheath and a leakage pathway to the internodal axolemma via the paranodal seal resistance and periaxonal space. The parameter values of the model were adjusted to match th… Show more

“…The demyelinations are associated with a corresponding loosening of the myelin lamellae away from the axolemma in the given internodal segments. The other membrane parameter values for the human motor fibre are the same as described earlier [18,20] 3. We would like to remind the reader that the channel types are also in accordance with the directly investigated ion channels in human axons [22,23].…”
