Presynaptic homeostatic depression (PHD) works successfully with a recombinant line of OK371-Gal4 and UAS-VGlut. (A) Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) electrophysiological data for miniature excitatory postsynaptic potentials (mEPSP), excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP), and quantal content (QC). Data are normalized to wild-type (WT; w1118) values. VGlut, OK371/+ NMJs have increased mEPSP but normal EPSP because of decreased QC, indicative of successful PHD (***p < 0.001 vs. WT by one-way ANOVA with Tukeys post-hoc). (B) Representative electrophysiological traces. Large traces are EPSPs; small traces are mEPSPs. Scale bars for EPSPs (mEPSPs) are 5 mV (1 mV) and 50 ms (1,000 ms). (C) Raw data for mEPSPs. (D) Raw data for EPSPs. (E) Raw data for QC. For (CE), bars are averages and error bars are SEM. ***p < 0.001 vs. WT or vs. OK371/+; #p < 0.05 vs. OK371/+; analyses by one-way ANOVA with Tukeys post-hoc.
