title: [Suppression of mediator secretion in murine neogenic motor synapses with the participation of L-type Ca(2+)-channels and ryanodine receptors].
abstract: L-type Ca(2+)-channel blockers, verapamil (5 microM) and nifedipine (10 microM), have increased the quantum composition of endplate potentials (EPP) and the level of induced rhythmic activity of neogenic synapses. L-type Ca(2+)-channel activator BAY 8644 (1 microM) has a decreased mediator secretion level. Nifedipine (10 microM) has not changed the frequency and amplitude of diminutive EPPs in the dormant state or during potassium depolarization. Blocking of the prejunctional ryanodine receptor with ryanodine (10 microM) led to an increase in the single EPP quantum composition that was qualitatively similar to nifedipine and verapamil, but more marked, and also caused the reinforcement of mediator release during the rhythmic EPP salvo. Ryanodine receptor activation with ryanodine (1 microM) resulted in reduction of the quantum composition of single and rhythmic EPPs. This effect was partially prevented with nifedipine (10 microM).
