neurone

Also known as nerve cell, nerve cells, neurons, neuronal cell, individual neuron

cellule spécialisée sur l'influx nerveux et la transmission synaptique

AI overview

A neuron is a specialized cell in your nervous system that fires electrical signals to communicate with other cells and process information throughout your body. Neurons pass these signals to each other through connections called synapses, using tiny amounts of chemicals called neurotransmitters to bridge the gaps between them.

Un neurone, ou une cellule nerveuse, est une cellule excitable constituant l'unité fonctionnelle de la base du système nerveux. Les neurones assurent la transmission d'un signal bioélectrique appelé influx nerveux. Ils ont deux propriétés physiologiques : l'excitabilité, c'est-à-dire la capacité de répondre aux stimulations et de convertir celles-ci en impulsions nerveuses, et la conductivité, c'est-à-dire la capacité de transmettre les impulsions. La compréhension du fonctionnement du neurone et du système nerveux, particulièrement chez l'homme, est l'objet d'étude des neurosciences. Les applications recouvrent la médecine, la psychologie et l'informatique (via les réseaux de neurones artificiel).
