Short-term Synaptic Facilitation

Short-Term Synaptic Facilitation is a form of presynaptic plasticity characterized by a transient increase in synaptic strength due to enhanced neurotransmitter release following high-frequency presynaptic activity, typically mediated by residual calcium accumulation in the presynaptic terminal.
