Continuous and Transient Vesicle Cycling at a Ribbon Synapse

Optical methods were used to study the Ca2+
dependence of vesicle cycling in bipolar cells isolated from goldfish
retinas. Uniformly raising the Ca2+ concentration to
between 0.8 and 20 µM produced a continuous vesicle cycle
of balanced exocytosis and endocytosis with a maximum rate equivalent
to the turnover of the entire surface membrane of a terminal every 2 min (or ~900 vesicles sec 1). Increasing the
Ca2+ concentration above 20 µM
inhibited continuous vesicle cycling. In contrast, influx of
Ca2+ through voltage-gated channels produced a
transient burst of exocytosis that increased the surface area of a
terminal by a maximum of 12% (equivalent to the addition of 13,000 vesicles). Endocytosis was delayed until after Ca2+
influx stopped and the average Ca2+ concentration in
the terminal declined. Hence, a single terminal has mechanisms for both
continuous and transient vesicle cycling.
Key words:
exocytosis; endocytosis; vesicle cycling; synaptic
vesicle; bipolar cell; retina
