Ethanol multiplies miniature end-plate potential frequency independently of calcium ion concentrations and also multiplies calcium-dependent depolarization-evoked quantal release, to the same extent. This result implies a final common pathway, requiring little or no calcium, for both kinds of transmitter secretion. Chlorpromazine and hypertonicity act similarly to ethanol, but also depress depolarization-secretion coupling.
