Molecular mechanisms of CNS synaptogenesis
Trends in Neurosciences, 2002 Synapses of the mammalian CNS are asymmetric sites of cell-cell adhesion between nerve cells. They are designed to mediate the rapid and efficient transmission of signals from the presynaptic bouton of one neuron to the postsynaptic plasma membrane of a ...

Thrombospondin receptor α2δ-1 promotes synaptogenesis and spinogenesis via postsynaptic Rac1 [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2018 Astrocytes control excitatory synaptogenesis by secreting thrombospondins (TSPs), which function via their neuronal receptor, the calcium channel subunit α2δ-1.

Synapses between nerve cells in the mammalian brain are not only extremely numerous but also very diverse with respect to their structural and functional characteristics. This heterogeneity arises despite the fact that a set of common basic protein ‘building blocks’ is shared by many synapses.

GABARAP: Lessons for Synaptogenesis
The Neuroscientist, 2003The clustering of neurotransmitter receptors at the postsynaptic terminals is a critical requirement for efficient neurotransmission and neuronal communication. This process is facilitated by adaptor proteins, which bridge the postsynaptic receptors and the underlying cytoskeleton. One such molecule, the GABA A

Role for glia in synaptogenesis
Glia, 2004AbstractNearly one‐half of the cells in a human brain are astrocytes, but the function of these little cells remains a great mystery. Astrocytes form an intimate association with synapses throughout the adult CNS, where they help regulate ion and neurotransmitter concentrations.

Synaptogenesis by Cholinergic Stimulation of Astrocytes
Neurochemical Research, 2023Astrocytes release numerous factors known to contribute to the process of synaptogenesis, yet knowledge about the signals that control their release is limited. We hypothesized that neuron-derived signals stimulate astrocytes, which respond to neurons through the modulation of astrocyte-released synaptogenic factors.

Synaptogenesis in the retina of the cat
Brain Research, 1986We have studied the development of synapses in the retina of the cat from E(embryonic day)21 to adulthood. The inner plexiform layer (IPL) could be distinguished by E36, but at this age no synapses had formed, although compact processes had formed in the IPL and membrane specialisations had developed in adjacent processes. Conventional synapses form in

MECHANISMS OF VERTEBRATE SYNAPTOGENESIS
Annual Review of Neuroscience, 2005The formation of synapses in the vertebrate central nervous system is a complex process that occurs over a protracted period of development. Recent work has begun to unravel the mysteries of synaptogenesis, demonstrating the existence of multiple molecules that influence not only when and where synapses form but also synaptic specificity and stability.
