Ch 12 - NT Release Flashcards
sodium influx and k efflux causes blank because when blocked, the cell can still be blank
no nt release, artificially depolarized
nt release is caused by blank of presynaptic cell
depolarization
elimination of blank from the extracellular solution blocks synaptic transmission
calcium
graded depolarization of the presynaptic cell cause graded blank currents
inward Calcium
synapse model that shows dependence of nt release in the auditory brainstem
calyx of held
delay between pre and post synaptic action potential
1-2 ms (synaptic delay)
calcium channels open up blank than na channels
slower
once calcium influx occurs, nt release occurs blank
rapidly
calcium sensor binds blank calcium ions to trigger release
5
nt are released in discrete amounts called blank
quanta (synaptic vesicle)
a blank potential creates a mini epsp
quantal
a release of neurotransmitter is always a blank of quanta
multiple
capacitance increases during blank of nt
exocytosis
capacitance decreases during blank of nt
endocytosis
two types of exocytosis
full, kiss and run
these regulate the reserve pool of vesicles tethered to actin
synapsisns
synapsisns are vesicular peripheral membrane blank
proteins
synapsisns release from vesicle during blank, which mobilizes vesicle to be transferred from reserve pool to docking at blank
Calcium influx, active zone
these proteins are for targeting of vesicles to active zone
rab proteins
