Abstract
1. 1. Electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves elicits a biphasic response in the ovulation hormone producing Caudo-Dorsal Cells of Lymnaea stagnalis. 2. Acetylcholine was the only putative transmitter used, that was effective at low concentrations. 3. Two receptors mediating the response to ACh were characterized. 4. Drugs selectively acting upon ACh receptors also interfered with synaptic transmission activated by nerve stimulation. 5. It is concluded that the input of caudo-dorsal cells activated by nerve stimulation is cholinergic. .
