Reviewer #3 (Public review): Progressive overfilling of readily releasable pool underlies short-term facilitation at recurrent excitatory synapses in layer 2/3 of the rat prefrontal cortex
Abstract
Excitatory recurrent synapses in the upper pyramidal layer of the prefrontal cortex exhibit delayed short-term facilitation, despite very high vesicular fusion probability, through synaptotagmin 7-dependent overfilling of release sites.
