Using an Optical Sensor of Synaptic Vesicle Exocytosis to Investigate the Relationship Between Release Probability and Paired-Pulse Plasticity at Individual Hippocampal Synapses
Release probability (Pr) is a determinant of synaptic strength that varies considerably between synapses, and correlates with the size of the readily releasable pool (RRP) of synaptic vesicles. Short-term plasticity is ...
