Quantitative optical nanophysiology of Ca2+ signaling at inner hair cell active zones
Quantitatively studying components of the presynapse requires high resolution optical methods. Here the authors use confocal microscopy as well as 2D- and 3D-STED nanoscopy to quantify the number and activity of active zone Ca2+ channels in inner hair cells.
