Ouabain had no effect on the MEPC parameters when AChE was active. After AChE inhibition ouabain initially increased the decay time constant of MEPC (tau), i.e. caused postsynaptic potentiation (PSP). This effect of ouabain grew with time between inhibition of AChE and application of ouabain. The PSP stage was followed by shortening of MEPCs decay, due to the development of desensitization (DS), and that process was more pronounced than in control. Applied before AChE inhibition, ouabain had no effect on tau. Thus neither PSP nor DS developed under those conditions. Exogenous ACh (20 nmol/l) applied simultaneously with inhibitor of AChE partially prevented the shortening of MEPCs decay, but decreased the amplitude of MEPC. Applied after MEPCs shortening, exogenous ACh (50 nmol/l) tended to return the initial value of tau. It is concluded that nonquantal ACh produces PSP and DS on the postsynaptic membrane after inhibition of ACh and that the DS persists after cessation of nonquantal secretion for a long time.</p>","PeriodicalId":19121,"journal":{"name":"Neirofiziologiia = Neurophysiology","volume":"24 4","pages":"396-404"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12607011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
