Erythromycin may affect neuromuscular transmission by acting presynaptically, so may produce or worsen symptoms of myasthenia gravis in patients with pre-existing postsynaptic defects.
12.
Yet another, extremely rare type of MG is congenital, when the disease is believed to be triggered by a genetic defect in neuromuscular transmission.
13.
Most of hiss research was in the physiology and disorders of neuromuscular transmission, spinal and brainstem reflexes, pain, and the criteria of brain death.
14.
It binds presynaptically with high affinity to sites on cholinergic nerve terminals, decreasing release of acetylcholine, thereby blocking neuromuscular transmission, and causing flaccid muscle paralysis.
15.
He devoted himself to the fields of nervous impulse transmissions, neuromuscular transmission, synaptic transmission, the propagation of impulses in the heart, the control of blood circulation, and the physiology of brain cortex.
16.
Von Euler liked to travel, so he also worked and learned biophysics with Archibald Vivian Hill, again in London in 1934, and neuromuscular transmission with G . L . Brown in 1938.
