  • Title: Activity increases quantal size at the frog neuromuscular junction.
    Author: Van der Kloot W, Van der Kloot TE.
    Journal: Experientia; 1985 Jan 15; 41(1):47-8. PubMed ID: 3871401.
    Abstract:
    Two h of nerve stimulation at 10 Hz or of elevated spontaneous release in hypertonic solution increased the size of miniature end-plate potentials (m.e.p.p.'s) and currents at the frog neuromuscular junction, probably by increasing the amount of acetylcholine in a quantum. Increases in quantal size may modulate synaptic transmission.
