| Abstract | Abstract Indomethacin and 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. The drugs irreversibly decreased quantal acetylcholine (ACh) release at the frog neuromuscular junction and increased the latency of the stimulated response. Subsequent exposure to poostaglandin E2 increased e.p.p. amplitudes by increasing quantal release and the effectiveness of single quanta. These results resemble the effects of these agents on ACh release at parasympathetic-smooth muscle junctions. |
