Force potentiation in the MDX mouse
… type IIB muscle fibers. It was hypothesized that post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) would be down-regulated to prevent damage in Xlinked muscular dystrophy (mdx) mice since PTP increases force and PTP effects are greatest in IIB fibers. PTP experiments were performed on the extensor digitorum longus …

Regulation of Excitatory Neurotransmission, Synaptic Plasticity, and Learning by Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 5
… 5 also led to a presynaptic enhancement in post-tetanic potentiation and a deficit in paired-pulse facilitation, which are consistent with an increase in probability of synaptic vesicle release, due to increased numbers of vesicles in the readily releasable pool or altered sensitivity to …

Molecular Mechanisms of Presynaptic Plasticity and Function in the Mammalian Brain
… Another form of short-term plasticity, post-tetanic potentiation (PTP), is believed to be mediated presynaptically by calcium-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms that phosphorylate Munc18-1 proteins. It is unknown how generally applicable this mechanism is throughout the brain and …
