...-licence-1-1/ Summary: Persistent neuromotor activity of respiratory muscles in bullfrogs during aquatic overwintering is unlikely to underlie normal respiratory motor function after months without lung breathing, despite having respiratory mechanics that operate underwater. Neuromuscular...

...Jonna L. Hamilton; Claire R. Edwards; Stephen R. Holt; Mary Kate Worden SUMMARY In cold-blooded species the efficacy of neuromuscular function depends both on the thermal environmental of the animal's habitat and on the concentrations of modulatory hormones circulating within the animal's body...

...Martha Skerrett; Amy Peaire; Patricia Quigley; A. Joffre Mercierf ABSTRACT The present study examined the effects of two recently identified neuropeptides on crayfish hearts and on neuromuscular junctions of the crayfish deep abdominal extensor muscles. The two peptides, referred to as NF 1 (Asn...

...Philip J. Stephens ABSTRACT The physiological and morphological properties of the thoracic flexor neuromuscular systems are described for the hermit crab Pagurus pollicaris . There are two pairs of flexor muscles in thoracic segments 3 to 5 : the dorsal flexors and the ventral flexors. The dorsal...

.... In addition, excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) are recorded, in order to gain some insight into the neuromuscular mechanisms involved. Carcinus maenas of various sizes were maintained in aerated sea water for up to several months prior to use. Active, semi-intact ganglia were prepared...
