Abstract
1. Depolarization of the giant axon terminal of the squid causes local calcium influx which gives rise to transmitter release and post-synaptic response, and which under certain experimental conditions leads to a regenerative action potential in the presynaptic terminal itself.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
