Comparison of the kinetics of endocytosis at different presynaptic terminals

Preparation Endo τfast (S) Endo τslow (S) Effect of increased stimulation Effect of increased [Ca2+]i
Goldfish bipolar cells ∼1a,b 10b,c More endocytosis by slow mode. [Ca2+]i stimulates fast mode c
No effect on rates c
Mouse inner hair cells 0.3e 7.5d Fast mode seen in more cells.
15e No effect on rates d
Frog NMJ 20f ∼5 minf Slows rate No effect of [Ca2+]ig
[Ca2+]i may inhibit fast endocytosis f
Rat hippocampal neurons 6h 20–60j Complex (see text) Complex (see text)
1i 4–90k
0.4–0.9l 8→21l
Mouse calyx of Held 0.1m ∼14m Slows rate No effect
Rat posterior pituitary terminals 0.3n >2n
