Tetanic stimulation
text:
In neurobiology, a tetanic stimulation consists of a high-frequency sequence of individual stimulations of a neuron. It is associated with potentiation. High-frequency stimulation causes an increase in release called post-tetanic potentiation. This presynaptic event is caused by calcium influx. Calcium-protein interactions then produce a change in vesicle exocytosis. The result of these changes is to make the postsynaptic cell more likely to fire an action potential. Tetanic stimulation is used
