Presynaptic G-protein coupled receptors for a large number of neurotransmitters, both autoreceptors and receptors for extrinsic signals, suppress Ca2+-channel gating in response to an action potential. This mechanism of action appears to be the dominant mechanism involved in short-term plasticity mediated by presynaptic receptors. A typical example is depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition (DSI), which is the short-term suppression of presynaptic GABA-release induced by the depolarization of the postsynaptic cell (Diana and Marty, 2004). DSI is caused when the postsynaptic depolarization causes the release of endocannabinoids from the postsynaptic cell, and the endocannabinoids then bind to presynaptic CB1 receptors whose activation suppresses presynaptic Ca2+-channels. Like many other forms of presynaptic suppression mediated by activation of presynaptic receptors, this effect is short-lasting (in the millisecond range). The precise mechanisms by which Ca2+-channels are suppressed appear to vary between receptors, but the outcome is always a very effective short-term decrease in synaptic signaling.
