Fraction of releasable and effective vesicles, in astrocyte-dependent information processing, during an input AP of 5 Hz (see Fig. 3a). a Fraction of releasable vesicles inside the bouton. b Fraction of effective vesicles in the synaptic cleft, i.e., fraction of vesicles fused and residual vesicles in the synaptic cleft. c Fraction of releasable SLMVs inside the astrocyte. d Fraction of effective SLMVs in the extra-synaptic cleft, i.e., fraction of fused and residual SLMV in the extra-synaptic cleft
