Transmission of electrical information between excitable cells occurs at synapses, which are
morphologically specialized regions of close approximation between the membranes of the …

parasympathetic innervation of the heart A. Morphological and chemical studies B …

This book provides the reader with an account of some of the experimental evidence on
which our present knowledge is based. The third edition of this highly successful book has …

The intention of this book is to offer a comprehensive description and discussion of
autonomic nerve function in the vertebrates from several points of view. Sections on …

A longstanding hypothesis is that ion channels are present in the membranes of synaptic
vesicles and might affect neurotransmitter release. Here we demonstrate that TRPM7, a …

The possibility that ATP and noradrenaline act as cotransmitters from sympathetic
perivascular nerves was studied in the isolated rabbit central ear artery. Electrical …

1. Arterioles were impaled with two independent micro‐electrodes, one to pass current and
the other to record membrane potential. 2. When current was injected into one branch of an …

1. Post‐synaptic responses to acetylcholine (ACh) released from nerve terminals and from
iontophoretic micropipettes were investigated in skeletal muscle fibres of the snake. Each …

In this book we attempt a synthesis of knowledge from two investigative extremes. On the
one hand, neurophysiology and neuropharmacology are progressing via the single neuron …

The basic mechanisms and local modulation of sympathetic transmitter secretion have been
reviewed repeatedly (Geffen and Livett 1971; Smith and Winkler 1972; Kirpekar 1975; …
