If gallamine or d-tubocurarine gains access to the central nervous system it produces a myoclonus, a synchronized jerking of many skeletal muscles. Each jerk is accompanied by a slow wave in the inferior olive. The jerking continues for 24 h or more after the gallamine or d-tubocurarine can no longer be detected in the CSF. We report here that a novel substance appears in the CSF and persists for a long period of time, possibly as long as the twitching. This substance is not corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) nor does CRF or harmaline (a substance causing a tremor by an action on the inferior olive) lead to the appearance of the novel substance. At present the nature of this substance is not known.
