Ephaptic coupling: History, History and etymology & Mechanism and effects

Ephaptic coupling is a form of communication within the nervous system that is distinct from direct communication systems like electrical synapses and chemical synapses. The phrase may refer to the coupling of adjacent (touching) nerve fibers caused by the exchange of ions between the cells, or it may refer to coupling of nerve fibers as a result of…
