| Abstract: | The ethanol changes the quantal spontaneous release of acetylcholine and it affects the reinnervation time course. The effects of ethanol on regenerated nerve endings have been tested. 20 days after crushing sciatic nerve, the m.e.p.p. frequency at the end plate of rat extensor digitorum longus muscle keep in Ringer solution without and with ethanol has been estimated by intracellular recordings. The increase of the m.e.p.p. frequency produced by ethanol is greater in immature, than in normal nerve endings. |
