Our book is written primarily for biologists and physicians but also for physicists, engineers, and students who want to understand the mechanisms of stimulation and signal propagation in nervous tissue. It describes in detail the mechanism of ephaptic coupling, which involves the transmission of excitation from an active neuron to a nearby inactive neuron through a conducting intercellular medium. This connection plays an important role in the functioning of the nervous system.The book explains how the interaction of the axon membrane with the electric field of low-intensity microwave radiation leads to a redistribution of transmembrane ion channels in the region of the initial segment of the axon, resulting in an increase or decrease in the threshold for action potential excitation, depending on the radiation intensity.IPEM-IOP Series in Physics and Engineering in Medicine and BiologyPart of
