Abstract

Our experiments and studies of a few other authors demonstrated that L-type calcium channels and mitochondria are involved in the induction of post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) in a number of preparations (Aplysia central nervous system, hippocampal cell cultures, crayfish neuromuscular junctions, etc.). We extend this conclusion on cortical synapses by the demonstration that inhibitors of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake and release suppress PTP in rat neocortical cell cultures.
