Abstract:The problem of changes in myoneural transmission in the presence of an intercalating agent, ethidium bromide, which has a known inhibitory effect on neuromuscular transmission, has been investigated, but the nature of such an effect remains unclear. To solve the question of the possible participation in this process of known modulators of synaptic transmission – purines (ATP and adenosine), we evaluated their effects in the presence of this agent. After holding the neuromuscular frog preparation in a perfusing… Show more
