The effects of low (10-100 ~M) concentrations of tetracaine on intramembrane charge movement and on the rate of calcium release (RreI) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) were studied in cut skeletal muscle fibres of the frog using the voltage clamp technique. The fibres were mounted in a single or

## Abstract Strips of guinea pig ileum lose over 70% of their contractility when bathed in Krebs‐Ringer solution containing 0.4–0.9 M formamide (FMD). This effect is not accompanied by an appreciable loss of tissue water and is totally reversed by washing the preparation in normal solution. Frog sa
In voltage-clamped frog muscle fibres 10 ng/ml PTX induced a decrease (~ 35 %) of tension when applied externally. Internal application in cut-end fibres significantly depressed tension after 20 min. This effect increased with time to reach 65 % after 60 min. PTX shifted the voltage-dependent inacti
