General Information
Term short-term synaptic potentiation ID (Ontology) GO:1990926 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The process by which synaptic transmission, induced by the arrival of a spike (action potential) at a synapse, acts to increase the amount of neurotransmitter released in response to the arrival of subsequent spikes. This effect is seen when a train of closely space spikes arrives at a synapse with a low initial release probability. It occurs in a timeframe of tens to hundreds of milliseconds.[ ISBN:9780071120005 PubMed:11826273 PubMed:26738595 ]
Also Known As "synaptic facilitation"
