... An action potential is an all-or-nothing signal. The amplitude (size) of the action potential stays constant because the signal is regenerated. The speed of the action potential is determined by the size of the axon. Action potentials are highly stereotyped (very similar) throughout the brain. ...

Clinical neurochemistry
Clinical neurochemistry is the field of neurological biochemistry which relates biochemical phenomena to clinical symptomatic manifestations in humans. While neurochemistry is mostly associated with the effects of neurotransmitters and similarly-functioning chemicals on neurons themselves, clinical neurochemistry relates these phenomena to system-wide symptoms. Clinical neurochemistry is related to neurogenesis, neuromodulation, neuroplasticity, neuroendocrinology, and neuroimmunology in the context of associating neurological findings at both lower and higher level organismal functions.
