Calcium/calmodulin: a synaptic antidepressant?

G Matthews1.   

Abstract

Synaptic depression contributes to short-term changes in synaptic efficacy during sustained activity. Sakaba and Neher (2001) have characterized two kinetically distinct pools of releasable vesicles whose depletion underlies depression at a CNS synapse. Calcium/calmodulin dramatically accelerates replenishment of one of these pools--and hence recovery from depression.
