Mechanisms of target‐cell specific short‐term plasticity at Schaffer collateral synapses onto interneurones versus pyramidal cells in juvenile rats
HY Sun, SA Lyons, LE Dobrunz - The Journal of physiology, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Although it is presynaptic, short‐term plasticity has been shown at some synapses to
depend upon the postsynaptic cell type. Previous studies have reported conflicting results as …
