Fast Ca2+ Buffer-Dependent Reliable but Plastic Transmission at Small CNS Synapses Revealed by Direct Bouton Recording

Summary: The small size of presynaptic structures and their rapid function have obscured the mechanisms underlying neurotransmission and plasticity. To dissect the function of conventional small presynaptic boutons, we performed direct recording using axon varicosities of cerebellar granule cells (G...
