“…The distortion of reproduction of the stimulation rhythm by postsynaptic cells was observed within the second or the third relatively high-frequency series of stimuli. It should also be noted that depolarizations of the membrane of the postsynaptic neuron induced by the first and second bursts of stimuli were nearly identical in their amplitudes; as some authors believe [6,11,12], this feature is indicative of the equal amounts of released neurotransmitter in the course of these stimulations.…”

Inter-and intraganglionar synaptic connections formed by neurons of the Helix visceral ganglion

In experiments on the subpharyngeal complex of the Helix ganglia, we found an excitatory monosynaptic input to the pacemaker PPa2 neuron from an unidentified cell of the visceral ganglion and a polysynaptic inhibitory influence of another unidentified neuron of this ganglion on the PPa1 cell. In addition, we revealed three pairs of neurons synaptically connected with each other (excitatory connections) in the visceral ganglion. In the case where we used high-frequency (11 sec -1 ) stimulation of presynaptic elements, synaptic transmission to the PPa2 neuron demonstrated the greatest efficiency and stability.

“…Other researchers also reported on such a peculiarity of this cell [11,12]; it seems possible that this feature is somehow related to modulation of the pacemaker function of the above neuron [3,4].…”
