title: An electrophysiological study of N-acetyl-L-aspartic acid (NAAA) on the stellate ganglion of the squid.
abstract: The effects of the NAAA have been studied from the giant fibre system of the stellate ganglion of the squid. It suggested that NAAA facilitates the neurotransmitter release by an increase in action potential amplitude of the presynaptic fibres and consequentely by increasing the PSP amplitude.
