in taxon regulates (processual) regulates regulation of signal transduction regulation of nervous system process regulation of membrane potential regulation of biological process modulation of chemical synaptic transmission excitatory postsynaptic potential modulation of excitatory postsynaptic potential Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP). EPSP is a process that leads to a temporary increase in postsynaptic potential due to the flow of positively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell. The flow of ions that causes an EPSP is an excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC) and makes it easier for the neuron to fire an action potential. GO:0098815 Metazoa
