Further study of the role of calcium in synaptic transmission

Open access

Abstract

1. The effect of calcium on synaptic transmission has been studied by intracellular recording of pre‐ and post‐synaptic potential changes in the stellate ganglion of the squid. 2. For a given presynaptic ‘input’ (propagated spike, or local depolarizing pulse after tetrodotoxin treatment), the post‐synaptic response increases with external calcium concentration [Ca]o in a highly non‐linear fashion, indicating that transmitter output varies with more than the second power of [Ca]o over a certain concentration range.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
