Buccalin is a neuropeptide that primarily targets synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction. It effectively reduces the amplitude of motor neuron-induced muscle contractions when externally administered, acting presynaptically without influencing the rate of muscle relaxation. Buccalin diminishes excitatory junction potentials at the ARC while preserving the contractile response elicited directly through acetylcholine. This selective modulation makes it a valuable tool for research on synaptic mechanisms and neuropeptide function in neuromuscular signaling.
