The actions of lead (Pb2+) on transmitter release were studied at neuromuscular junctions in mouse diaphragm in vitro. The quantal content of end-plate potentials (EPPs) was reduced by Pb2+ in a dose-related manner consistent with inhibition of Ca2+ entry into nerve terminals, with a half-maximal ef
