Becauase reuptake of acetylcholine is inhibited, the muscle membrane at the neuromuscular junction will remain for an abnormally long period, casuing the muscles to remain in a state. The prolonged , in turn, would be propagated via the T tubule system to . The result would be prolonged release of calcium, resulting in sarcomere voa the effects of calcium on .
