Relationship between hearing function and myasthenia gravis: a contemporary review [PDF]
, 2016 There is increasing evidence of a connection between hearing function and myasthenia gravis (MG). Studies of the pathophysiological basis of this relationship suggest that acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) on outer hair cells (OHCs) play a central role. In

Practical Anatomy of the Neuromuscular Junction in Health and Disease [PDF]
Neurologic Clinics, 2018 Neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) form between nerve terminals of spinal cord motor neurons and skeletal muscles, and perisynaptic Schwann cells and kranocytes cap NMJs. One muscle fiber has one NMJ, which is innervated by one motor nerve terminal.
