## Abstract The effects of 4‐aminopyridine (4‐AP) on neuromuscular transmission were studied in vitro in the rat flexor digitorum longus muscles. 4‐AP produced dose‐dependent increases in endplate potential (EPP) amplitude, in rise time to peak, and in the average number of acetylcholine quanta rel

## Abstract Treatment of patients with D‐penicillamine (D‐P) has been associated with a syndrome similar to myasthenia gravis (MG). To explore this association, we examined the effects of D‐P on neuromuscular transmission in rat muscle. In the first experiment, bath‐applied D‐P had no significant e
## Abstract The effects of corticotropin (ACTH) and the polypeptide fragment ACTH 4‐10 on neuromuscular transmission were studied in rat phrenic nerve–diaphragm preparations in vitro. ACTH decreased the quantum content of end‐plate potentials (epps) and increased the transmission failure rate. The
