Voltage-Regulated Channels

Ion channels in the cell membranes that open or close in response to changes in membrane potential, crucial for the transmission of electrical signals.

Hyperpolarization

A rise in the membrane potential of a cell, resulting in it becoming more negatively charged and reducing its chances of initiating an action potential.
