Two types of neurones in the myenteric plexus of duodenum in the guinea‐pig
1. Intracellular recordings have been made from neurones lying in the myenteric plexus of guinea‐pig duodenum; some aspects of their membrane properties have been studied by passing current through…
Temperature-dependent inhibition of evoked acetylcholine release in tick paralysis
It is found that the paralysis produced by I. holocyclus is due to a temperature-dependent inhibition of evoked release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction.

The origin of the muscle fasciculation caused by funnel-web spider venom.
The results suggest that a primary site of action of FSV is the surface membrane of nerve fibres and that muscle fasciculation arises as a consequence of spontaneous action potentials produced by the venom in motor nerves.
