Abstract
Batrachotoxin (BTX) or 6-aminonicotinamide (6-AN) when injected into the subarachnoidal space of the lumbar spinal cord block fast axonal transport of 3H-protein in motor nerves. Axonal transport recovers partially within one day after administering BTX while the effect of 6-AN lasts for more than 21 days. These observations are discussed in relation to the onset and recovery of membrane depolarization observed in the extensor muscle.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
