Abstract

Looks at a study which presented several lines of evidence for the occurrence of graded synaptic transmission in the heart of the isopod crustacean, Ligia exotica. Materials and methods; Correlation of slow membrane potential changes between cardiac ganglion neurones and the myocardium; Reversal potential for graded membrane current responses of the myocardium.
