Extracellular ATP hydrolysis inhibits synaptic transmission by increasing ph buffering in the synaptic cleft.
Neuronal computations strongly depend on inhibitory interactions. One such example occurs at the first retinal synapse, where horizontal cells inhibit photoreceptors. This interaction generates the center/surround organization of bipolar cell receptive fields and is crucial for contrast enhancement....
