P/Q-type calcium channel ablation in a mice glycinergic synapse mediated by multiple types of Ca 2+ channels alters transmitter release and short term plasticity
Ca v2.1 channels (P/Q-type) play a prominent role in controlling neurotransmitter release. Transgenic mice in which the α1A pore-forming subunit of Ca v2.1 channels is ablated (KO) provide a powerful tool to study Ca v2.1 function in synaptic transmission in vivo. Whole-cell patch clamp was used to...
