Simultaneous Comparison of Nicotinic Receptor Antagonists on Three Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors
Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1995 AbstractThe relative potencies of several nicotinic cholinoceptor antagonists in producing tetanic fade and reduction of striated muscle contraction were investigated in the isolated guinea-pig oesophagus as well as the guinea-pig and rat phrenic nerve-diaphragm preparations.

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...
