Biophysical properties of presynaptic short-term plasticity inhippocampal neurons: insights from electrophysiology, imagingand mechanistic models

Hippocampal neurons show different types of short-term plasticity (STP). Some exhibit facilitation of their synaptic responses and others depression. In this review we discuss presynaptic biophysical properties behind heterogeneity in STP in hippocampal neurons such as alterations in vesicle priming...
