Maturation of neuromuscular transmission during early development in zebrafish.
We have examined the rapid development of synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in zebrafish embryos and larvae by patch-clamp recording of spontaneous miniature endplate currents (mEPCs) and single acetylcholine receptor (AChR) channels. Embryonic (24-36 h) mEPCs recorded in vivo were small in amplitude (<50 pA). The rate of mEPCs increased in larvae (3.5-fold increase meas...
متن کاملNeuromuscular refractoriness during blockage of transmission. A quantitative study.
The effects of suxamethonium and tubocurarine on the refractoriness of neuromuscular transmission were studied in 21 anaesthetized adult subjects under various levels of neuromuscular block. The ulnar nerve was stimulated every 12 s with twin supramaximal stimuli 4 ms apart. At any level of block, the refractory fraction (the fractional decrement of the compound electromyographic response of th...
متن کاملEffects of Buthus eupeus Venom on Neuromuscular Transmission on Striated Muscle In Vitro
In this study, effects of Buthus eupeus venom on chick biventer cervices nerve-muscle preparation were investigated by twitch tension method. The venom, at 1.3 ?g/ml, increased contractile responses in indirect stimulations. These effects were milder in direct muscle stimulations. It also caused significant enhancement in postjunctional sensitivity as assessed by responses to exogenous acetylch...

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...
