Spines of dendrites

Zhurnal «Patologicheskaia fiziologiia i eksperimental`naia terapiia», 2022
Мозг осуществляет постоянное и чаще достаточно успешное приспособление организма к меняющимся условиям среды. Важнейшим структурно-функциональным проявлением этой приспособительной реакции мозга является адекватное ситуации изменение числа, внешней формы, внутреннего строения, скорости структурных перестроек, химического состава воспринимающих сигнал ...

Dendritic Spine Formation

Science, 2001
STKE Changes in the morphology of neuronal dendritic spines are correlated with changes in synaptic plasticity. The cell surface proteoglycan syndecan-2 is clustered at the surface of mature hippocampal neurons and is thought to regulate structural changes of the spines. Now Ethell et al.

Dendritic Spines

2014
Fragile X syndrome is a mental condition caused by the mutation in a single gene called the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene, which is found on the X chromosome. Fragile X syndrome is the most common inherited condition causing mental retardation. Fragile X syndrome can cause learning disabilities, severe mental incapacitation and even autism.

Editorial:Exciting Dendritic Spines

The Open Neuroscience Journal, 2009
The ability of a synapse to alter its strength based on use (synaptic plasticity) reigns as the basis of most cellular models of learning and memory [1]. However, if synaptic plasticity is king, then the dendritic spine is its kingdom. The dendritic spine, which houses the majority of excitatory synapses in the mammalian central nervous system, also ...

Microtubule Dynamics in Dendritic Spines

2010
Neuronal microtubules recently emerged as temporal and spatial regulators of dendritic spines, the major sites of excitatory synaptic input. By imaging microtubules in cultured mature primary hippocampal neurons using fluorescently tagged tubulin and microtubule plus-end binding (EB) protein EB3, dynamic microtubules were found to regularly depart from

Neurotrophic Factors and Dendritic Spines

2023
Dendritic spines are highly dynamic structures that play important roles in neuronal plasticity. The morphologies and the numbers of dendritic spines are highly variable, and this diversity is correlated with the different morphological and physiological features of this neuronal compartment.

Dendritic spine morphogenesis and plasticity

Journal of Neurobiology, 2005
AbstractDendritic spines are small protrusions off the dendrite that receive excitatory synaptic input. Spines vary in size, likely correlating with the strength of the synapses they form. In the developing brain, spines show highly dynamic behavior thought to facilitate the formation of new synaptic contacts.

Dendritic spine formation and stabilization

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2009
Formation, elimination and remodeling of excitatory synapses on dendritic spines represent a continuous process that shapes the organization of synaptic networks during development. The molecular mechanisms controlling dendritic spine formation and stabilization therefore critically determine the rules of network selectivity.

Dendritic Spines

2010
A leading neurobiologist explores the fundamental function of dendritic spines in neural circuits by analyzing different aspects of their biology, including structure, development, motility, and plasticity. Most neurons in the brain are covered by dendritic spines, small protrusions that arise from dendrites, covering them like leaves on

Dendritic Spines

1998
Dendritic spines, sometimes also called dendritic thorns, are tiny, specialized protoplasmic protuberances that cover the surface of many neurons. First described by Ramón y Cajal (1909; 1991) in light-microscopic studies of Golgi stained tissue, they are among the most striking subneuronal features of many neurons.
