Question

Two metal ions from which block are required for stabilization of cell membranes?​

Answer 1

Two metal ions required for stabilisation of cell membranes are sodium and calcium ions.

• Cell membrane stabilisation involves the inhibition of the activities to propagate in the cell membranes.
• It completely unable the action potential to move across the membrane.
• Membrane stabilisation effect is common in nerve tissues as they are the carrier of impulses.
• It must be remember that they transfer impulses from the periphery to the CNS.
• Membrane stabilisation is the way by which local anaesthetic can function.
• As already mentioned, they can hinder the propagation of activities across the nerve cells, thus it will produce a nerve blockage.
