Abstract: Neural variability plays a central role in neural coding and neuronal network dynamics. Unreliability of synaptic transmission is a major source of neural variability: synaptic neurotransmitter vesicles are released probabilistically in response to presynaptic spikes and are recovered stochastically in time. The stochastic dynamics of this process interacts with variability in the arrival times of presynaptic spikes to shape the variability of the postsynaptic response. We use continuous time Markov chain methods to analyze a model of short term synaptic depression with stochastic vesicle dynamics coupled with three different models of presynaptic spiking: one model in which the timing of presynaptic spikes are modeled as a Poisson process, one in which spikes occur more regularly than a Poisson process and one in which spikes occur more irregularly. We use this analysis to investigate how variability in a presynaptic spike train is transformed by short term synaptic depression and stochastic vesicle dynamics to determine the variability of the postsynaptic response to a presynaptic spike train. We find that regular presynaptic spiking increases the average rate at which vesicles are released, that the number of vesicles released over a time window is more variable for smaller time windows than for larger time windows, and that fast presynaptic spiking gives rise to Poisson-like variability of the postsynaptic response even when presynaptic spike times are highly non-Poisson. Our results complement and extend previously reported theoretical results and provide possible explanations for some trends observed in recorded data.
