The patch-clamp method has been used to investigate the action of caffeine on the calcium current (Ic,) in single isolated smooth muscle cells of the guineapig ileum. Caffeine (10 mM) substantially inhibited Ic,. This effect occurred in a biphasic manner and it was not due either to activation of ad

Chloride-dependent action potentials were elicited from embryonic skeletal muscle fibers of the chick during the last week of in ovo development. The duration of the action potentials was extremely long (>8 sec). The action potentials were reversibly blocked by the stilbene derivative, SITS, a speci
We investigated the frequency and duty cycle dependence of maximal electrically induced torque (MEIT) of the wrist extensors. Fifty hertz burst modulated sinusoidal alternating current (AC) in the frequency range 0.5-20 kHz was used, with duty cycles ranging from a minimum (one cycle) to maximum (co
