“…The latter being about ten times longer than the former, active impulse propagation is required to depolarize the whole length and release transmitter (Katz & Miledi, 1965Braun & Schmidt, 1966). Interestingly, Na, K and Ca channels and acetylcholine release sites seem to be more or less uniformly distributed along frog motor endings while, in mouse, Na channels are concentrated exclusively at the preterminal part.…”

“…The negative phase appears composed of two elements whose relative amplitudes varied on small readjustment of electrode position. The segment that generates this wave form lies above the end-plate and does not contact the post-synaptic membrane (Couteaux, 1958) Of the three types of response recorded from mouse motor endings, only the intermediate response resembles the classical triphasic wave form observed in motor terminals of frogs (Katz & Miledi, 1965;Braun & Schmidt, 1966;Benoit & Mambrini, 1970) and rats (Datyner & Gage, 1980) which corresponds to membrane current related to a propagating action potential (Tasaki, 1959;Katz & Miledi, 1965;Bostock et al 1981). The triphasic wave form corresponds thus, successively, to outward passive current, active Na current and delayed outward K current.…”

“…Repetitive as well as single pulse activation of synapses in central and peripheral nervous systems almost invariably influence in some way the magnitude of subsequent test responses (Job & Lundberg, 1953;Liley & North, 1953;Curtis & Eccles, 1960;Hubbard, 1963;Braun & Schmidt, 1966;L0mo, 1971b;Richards, 1972). While such phenomena have been closely examined at the neuromuscular junction, there have been few systematic attempts to characterize them at synapses in mammalian brain (e.g.…”

“…However, it has recently been shown that potassium may increase m.e.p.p. frequency by an action distinct from its depolarizing effect (Gage & Quastel, 1965a), and, moreover, that the quantal content of end-plate potentials (e.p.p.s) and presynaptic spike size can change independently (Hubbard & Schmidt, 1963;Martin & Pilar, 1964;Braun & Schmidt, 1965;Katz & Miledi, 1965b).…”
