متن کاملNeuromuscular transmission in Peripatus.
The electrical and mechanical responses of body, leg and jaw muscle of Peripatus to electrical excitation of their motor-nerves were examined. A small twitch was obtained from each muscle, whose strength increased stepwise with increasing stimulus strength. In jaw and body muscles as many as ten increments in height were obtained with increasing stimulus strength. Only a single twitch height wa...
متن کاملCurrent concepts in neuromuscular transmission.
The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is structured and powered to transduce electrical activity from the distal nerve terminal of a motor neurone via the neuromuscular cleft to the post-junctional muscle membrane to ultimately generate muscle contraction. Our understanding of this complex function has expanded over many years, and the NMJ has served as a prototype for how different synapses operate...
متن کاملBasic principles of neuromuscular transmission.
Neuromuscular transmission at the skeletal muscle occurs when a quantum of acetylcholine from the nerve ending is released and binds to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on the postjunctional muscle membrane. The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on the endplate respond by opening channels for the influx of sodium ions and subsequent endplate depolarisation leads to muscle contraction. The ...
متن کاملAutoantibodies in neuromuscular transmission disorders
It is a great pleasure to be asked to honour the memory of Dr. Baldev Singh by reviewing the field of autoantibodies in myasthenia gravis and other neurotransmission disorders. The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is the site of a number of different autoimmune and genetic disorders, and it is also the target of many neurotoxins from venomous snakes, spiders, scorpions and other species. The molecu...
