Bidirectional coupling of action potential activity occurs between unmyelinated fibers in the normal peripheral nerve of monkey. The site of coupling is near the cutaneous nociceptive receptor associated with one of the fibers. This coupling could be due to an electrical synapse and could provide the basis for the flare associated with the axon reflex.
在猴的正常外周神经中,无髓鞘纤维之间存在动作电位活动的双向耦合。耦合部位靠近与其中一根纤维相关的皮肤伤害性感受器。这种耦合可能是由于电突触引起的,并可能为与轴突反射相关的潮红提供基础。
