Motor endplate is the structure connected between the nerve terminal and muscle fibre and plays a very important role in conducting nerve impulses to the target, therefore, systemical study of the sequential changes of the motor end-plate upon denervation is quite important.Ninety New Zealand rabbits were divided into nine groups from two weeks to nine months after denervation. Acetycholinesterase(AchE) was analyzed quantitatively to study the sequential changes of the motorendplates of tibialis anterior muscle. The results showed that there was no significant reduction of AchE at theend if one month after denervation, whereas a sharp reduction of AchE afterwards. AchE could not be stained after five month denervation.
