    Summary

    Figure 1: Discrepancy between failure rates of EPSCs mediated by AMPA and NMDA receptors. EPSCs were recorded in a rat dentate granule cell in response to minimal stimulation of presynaptic axons. Twenty succesive responses are shown superimposed in each case. When holding the neuron at a negative potential to keep NMDA receptors blocked (left), AMPA receptor-mediated EPSCs were only observed in a small minority of trials. When the neuron was held at a positive potential to relieve the Mg2+ block of NMDA receptors (right), most trials resulted in an EPSC with slower kinetics typical of NMDA receptors. (Data from M.-Y. Min and D.M. Kullmann)
