## Abstract The direct neurotoxic effects of E. coli endotoxin (ETX) on spontaneous transmitter release were tested at the frog sartorius muscle neuromuscular junction. Spontaneous transmitter release was monitored by intracellularly recording miniature endβplate potentials (MEPPs). Junctions were

The effect of different distributions of acetylcholine receptors at the active zone of somatic motor-nerve terminals on the amplitude-frequency histogram of spontaneous excitatory currents due to the secretion of a quantum of transmitter has been analysed by numerically solving the diffusion and bin
## Abstract In this study it was found that several agents which elevate cAMP levels in cells also increase dramatically the quantity of transmitter released from crayfish excitatory nerve terminals in response to a stimulus. With respect to time course and magnitude, the increase produced by one o
## Abstract The neurotoxicity of RNAβfree lipopolysaccharide (LPS) extracted from Salmonella Typhimurium (SRβ11) was tested at the frog neuromuscular junction using intracellular recording techniques. Spontaneous miniature endplate potential (MEPP) frequency was reduced to 45% of control after 60 m
Sera from 30 patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) were tested to determine their effects at the neuromuscular junction. Spontaneous transmitter release was significantly increased, as evidenced by a 151% increase in MEPP frequency, by sera from 16 ALS patients. In addition, 16
