Neurotransmitter Release Site Replenishment and Presynaptic Plasticity

Neurotransmitter Release Site Replenishment and Presynaptic Plasticity

An action potential (AP) triggers neurotransmitter release from synaptic vesicles (SVs) docking to a specialized release site of presynaptic plasma membrane, the active zone (AZ). The AP simultaneously controls the release site replenishment with SV for sustainable synaptic transmission in response...
