.... The latencies of the later depressed responses were ∼0.1 ms longer than that of EPSP 1 , suggesting a reduced release probability. The Ca 2+ chelators EGTA and BAPTA, injected presynaptically, reduced all EPSPs and slowed development of the second component of depression. Interestingly, spike broadening...
