COOK From our earlier experiments, the site of action for the excitatory peptide seemed to be the visceral muscles of the hindgut. However, there was the pos- sibility of a localized neural network which, if sensititive to the peptide, might indirectly stimulate the muscle fibers. This possibility was eliminated by treating an innervated hindgut with tetrodotoxin (10~6 g/ml). Four minutes after treat- ment, all neural function was abolished.
