## Abstract Both spontaneous and evoked transmitter release from the frog neuromuscular junction can be modified by application of sodium bisulfite, a reagent specific for disulfide bonds. An increase in miniature endplate frequency is produced that is not dependent on external calcium, sodium, or
Voltage-gated sodium channels (NaChs) are highly concentrated in the postsynaptic region of the neuromuscular junction, especially in the depths of postsynaptic folds and in the perijunctional region. The formation of the high NaCh density occurs during synapse maturation, approximately 2 weeks afte
## Abstract The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a cholinergic synapse that controls muscle contraction. Glial cells, called perisynaptic Schwann cells, surround nerve terminals at the NMJ. Transmitter release induced by repetitive nerve stimulation, elicit a frequency‐dependent activation of G‐prot
