Evidence for multivesicular release Blocking Glu uptake with TBOA did not affect this result, suggesting that Pr does not affect spillover, but rather causes MVR Christie and Jahr, J Neurosci. 26:210, 2006

Short term plasticity • Dynamic changes in release probability • Likely mechanisms • Ca2+ accumulation in synaptic terminals • Altered vesicle availability • To implement • update Prel upon occurrence of a spike • then continue to calculate state of Prel dependent on P0 (resting probability) and tP(rel) Fuhrmann et al J Neurophysiol 87:140, 2002
Longer term plasticity • bidirectional • LTP • LTD • Both IE and synaptic strength may change • Implicated in learning and memory
LTP • Robust in hippocampus • Readily evoked and recorded with extracellular electrodes • Evoked by tract stimulation: simultaneous activation of many axons • There are more subtle (and in my view more interesting) versions of LTP
