Estimating the Readily-Releasable Vesicle Pool Size at Synaptic Connections in the Neocortex

Previous studies based on the ‘Quantal Model’ for synaptic transmission suggest that neurotransmitter release is mediated by a single release site at individual synaptic contacts in the neocortex. However, recent studies seem to contradict this hypothesis and indicate that multi-vesicular release (M...
