Differential expression of P2X receptors on neurons from different parasympathetic ganglia.

abstract：:The information processing at central synapses is mediated not only by homosynaptic transmission with direct synaptic connections but also by heterosynaptic interactions between distinct synaptic inputs. Using rat brain slices and whole-cell recordings this study aimed to examine the roles of GABA(B) receptors in syna...
