精彩書摘

Voltage-gated potassium channels have K+-selectivepores that are opened by membrane depolarization.This opening allows the movement of K+ ions acrossthe plasma membrane and the generation of K+ cur-rents that tend to repolarize the membrane towardthe equilibrium potential for K+ （EK）. Voltage-gatedpotassium channels contribute widely to the electricalproperties of neurons. They influence subthresholdproperties， including the resting potential and mem-brane resistance. They influence the amplitude andfrequency of subthreshold oscillations， the responsive-ness of the cell to synaptic inputs， and the probabilityof spike generation. They help shape postsynapticpotentials， and they are the main determinants of therepolarization of the action potential governing spikeshape and frequency. Their voltage-dependent activityensures a non-ohmic current-voltage relationship，which thereby enables the channels to contribute tothe nonlinear properties of neurons. Voltage-gatedpotassium channels have similar functions in otherexcitable cells， including all varieties of muscle. In non-excitable cells， they contribute to the resting potentialand to the regulation of Ca2+ entry and secretion. Voltage-gated K+ channels differ dramatically intheir kinetic and voltage-dependent properties aswell as their cellular and subcellular distributions.This diversity is a main contributor to the varied elec-trical properties of neuronal populations throughoutthe nervous system. Thus， understanding the input-output relationship of neuronal elements demands thecontinued effort to study the properties and localiza-tion of these channels and analyze their physiologicalroles in native membranes.

前言/序言

　　20世紀中葉以來，關於神經係統的研究從以往生物與心理學研究的邊緣地位躍升，成為神經科學這一交叉學科。這一新學科將生物化學、細胞生物學、解剖學、生理學、心理學、神經病學、精神病學等具有不同背景的科學傢與臨床醫生們聯係起來，研究令人激動的腦的秘密。他們專注於探索神經元的功能機製，澄清行為與認知的神經基礎，瞭解神經係統疾病。1969年神經科學學會的創建大大促進瞭該學科的發展，如今該學會已經擁有近37 000名會員。第一個針對神經科學的學術培訓項目建立於醫學院（1965年加州大學聖迭戈分校建立神經科學係，1966年哈佛大學建立神經生物學係）。第一個本科生培訓項目於1972年建立於Amherst學院和Oberlin學院，後者培養瞭諾貝爾奬獲得者：Roger Sperry和三位神經科學會會長。時至今日，全世界已經有超過300個神經科學係或相應的培養項目。
　　《神經科學百科全書》旨在將本學科豐富多元的內容條理化並仔細介紹，從而推動不同學術分支之間的溝通，提供權威的信息來源。該書麵嚮較為廣泛的讀者群體，既包括初入神經科學研究的學生，也包括尋求特定專題知識的普通讀者。無論是神經科學傢，還是正在學習神經科學的本科生和研究生，或生命科學領域的教師、科普作傢，都會從該參考書中獲益。
　　《神經科學百科全書》的第一版，也是該學科的第一本詳盡的參考書，於1987年在George Adelman卓有成效的領導下齣版；該版本分為兩捲，共700多個條目。本書的第二版由George Adelman和Barry Smith主編，包括超過800個條目，於1999年分兩捲齣版，同時配發瞭光盤版。2004年的第三版僅以電子版本發行。
　　本次齣版的版本包括近1500個條目，全書在Science Direct網站上發行，讀者可以注冊登錄閱讀。主編小組在神經科學中劃分齣46個主要領域，並邀請各個領域的專傢擔任副主編，由他們組織該領域的內容。每位副主編再邀請30~40位作者準備各個專題條目，這些專題將努力涵蓋該領域的所有內容。許多專題作者都是該領域享有盛譽的領導者。這使得該書成為當今神經科學學科的匯編，其中囊括瞭最重要的研究、最有力的研究工具、最有潛力的應用。
　　許多條目本身就是一篇自成一體的獨立綜述。同時，在結論部分又有大量的交叉引用，它們可以將讀者引入其他相關的條目。此書主體上以字母順序組織所有條目。此外，詳盡的主題分類又可以幫助讀者找到相關的專題，以瞭解本學科的結構。
　　雖然沒有一本神經科學的參考書能夠囊括大腦研究每一個值得注意的想法和成果，主編們仍希望本書能夠成為一本既翔實又具指導意義的、反映當代神經科學研究的匯編。神經科學還在不斷發展嚮前，如果本書能夠在徵服神經係統疾病，和瞭解腦、思維及我們自身的徵程中發揮作用，它就獲得瞭成功。
