[L-glutamate--a candidate for the role of membrane-potential nerve control factor in mammalian muscle fibers].
L-glutamate released from the motor nerve terminal seems to be involved in the maintenance of resting potential (RP) in skeletal muscles via the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-activated influx of Ca2+ to the cytoplasm with subsequent activation of NO-synthase and production of the NO which could act as a messenger providing the control of the membrane ion-transporting proteins.
