Depletion of a pool of readily releasable vesicles during repetitive presynaptic activity is a
candidate mechanism for the induction of short-term synaptic depression. The large, calyx …

▪ Abstract Neurons in the cochlear ganglion and auditory brain stem nuclei preserve the
relative timing of action potentials passed through sequential synaptic levels. To accomplish …

Recording of glutamate-activated currents in membrane patches was combined with RT-
PCR-mediated AMPA receptor (AMPAR) subunit mRNA analysis in single identified cells of …

The molecular mechanisms that regulate basal or background entry of divalent cations into
mammalian cells are poorly understood. Here we describe the cloning and functional …

Neuronal gain control is important for processing information in the brain. Shunting inhibition
is not thought to control gain since it shifts input-output relationships during tonic excitation …

CALCIUM entry through presynaptic calcium channels controls the release of
neurotransmitter1. It is not known whether the putative calcium sensor that triggers this rapid …

Fast, precise, and sustained synaptic transmission at high frequency is thought to be crucial
for the task of sound localization in the auditory brainstem. However, recordings from the …

1. Simultaneous whole‐cell recordings in a rat brain slice preparation are described from
presynaptic terminals (calyces of Held) and postsynaptic somata which form an axosomatic …

Voltage-gated calcium channels are well characterized at neuronal somata but less
thoroughly understood at the presynaptic terminal where they trigger transmitter release. In …
