Diverse Short-Term Dynamics of Inhibitory Synapses Converging on Striatal Projection Neurons: Differential Changes in a Rodent Model of Parkinson’s Disease

Figure 5

Fits of intensity-amplitude plots in samples of synaptic events with different STSP. (a) I-A plot of STD (red), STF (blue), and STB (green) sampled averaged synapses; fits ± estimation errors (shaded areas around the fits), also compared with the plots in control conditions from Figure 2 (dashed lines). Differences were not significant for STD synapses but maximal values were significantly different for STF and STB synapses. (b) However, slope factors and recruitment of release sites did not change significantly in these synapses.
