Cadherins and synaptic plasticity

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2008
Given their trans-synaptic localization, their persistent expression at mature synapses and their distinct biochemical and adhesive properties, cadherins are uniquely poised at the synapse to mediate synaptic plasticity, the ability to change synaptic function thought to underlie learning and memory.

Surface biotinylation of primary neurons to monitor changes in AMPA receptor surface expression in response to kainate receptor stimulation

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Here, we detail a surface biotinylation technique used to label surface-expressed proteins in primary neuronal cultures. Surface proteins are labeled with membrane-impermeant Sulfo-NHS-SS-biotin, and isolated by pull-down with streptavidin beads

The Spacing Effect for Structural Synaptic Plasticity Provides Specificity and Precision in Plastic Changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In contrast to trials of training without intervals (massed training), training trials spaced over time (spaced training) induce a more persistent memory identified as long-term memory (LTM).

Synaptic plasticity rules with physiological calcium levels

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Spike-timing–dependent plasticity (STDP) is a form of synaptic modification thought to be a primary mechanism underlying formation of new memories.

Ca2+ and synaptic plasticity

open access: yesCell Calcium, 2005
The induction and maintenance of synaptic plasticity is well established to be a Ca2+-dependent process. The use of fluorescent imaging to monitor changes [Ca2+]i in neurones has revealed a diverse array of signaling patterns across the different compartments of the cell.

Interactions between short-term and long-term plasticity: shooting for a moving target [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Far from being static transmission units, synapses are highly dynamical elements that change over multiple time scales depending on the history of the neural activity of both the pre- and postsynaptic neuron.

Gravin orchestrates protein kinase A and 2-adrenergic receptor signaling critical for synaptic plasticity and memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A kinase-anchoring proteins (AKAPs) organize compartmentalized pools of protein kinase A (PKA) to enable localized signaling events within neurons. However, it is unclear which of the many expressed AKAPs in neurons target PKA to signaling complexes ...

The Candidate Schizophrenia Risk Gene Tmem108 Regulates Glucose Metabolism Homeostasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
BackgroundSchizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychiatric disease affected by genetic factors and environmental contributors, and premorbid abnormality of glucose metabolism is one of the SCZ characteristics supposed to contribute to the disease’s ...
