Journal of Biomedical Science, 2020 Background Dendritic spines, the actin-rich protrusions emerging from dendrites, are the subcellular locations of excitatory synapses in the mammalian brain. Many actin-regulating molecules modulate dendritic spine morphology.

SPIN90 phosphorylation modulates spine structure and synaptic function. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The correct rearrangement of postsynaptic components in dendritic spines is important for driving changes of spine structure and synaptic function. SPIN90 plays an essential role in many cellular processes including actin polymerization, endocytosis ...

Morphological analysis of dendrites and spines by hybridization of ridge detection with twin support vector machine [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Dendritic spines are described as neuronal protrusions. The morphology of dendritic spines and dendrites has a strong relationship to its function, as well as playing an important role in understanding brain function.

Dendritic Spines in Depression: What We Learned from Animal Models
Journal of Neural Transplantation and Plasticity, 2016 Depression, a severe psychiatric disorder, has been studied for decades, but the underlying mechanisms still remain largely unknown. Depression is closely associated with alterations in dendritic spine morphology and spine density.

Dendritic spine pathology in schizophrenia [PDF]
Neuroscience, 2013 Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder whose clinical features include impairments in perception, cognition and motivation. These impairments reflect alterations in neuronal circuitry within and across multiple brain regions that are due, at least in part, to deficits in dendritic spines, the site of most excitatory synaptic connections ...
