Role for Reelin in neurotransmitter release.
The extracellular matrix molecule Reelin is known to control neuronal migration during development. Recent evidence suggests that it also plays a role in the maturation of postsynaptic dendrites and spines as well as in synaptic plasticity. Here, we aimed to address the question whether Reelin plays a role in presynaptic structural organization and function. Quantitative electron microscopic an...
متن کاملThe role of neurotrophins in neurotransmitter release.
The neurotrophins (NTs) have recently been shown to elicit pronounced effects on quantal neurotransmitter release at both central and peripheral nervous system synapses. Due to their activity-dependent release, as well as the subcellular localization of both protein and receptor, NTs are ideally suited to modify the strength of neuronal connections by "fine-tuning" synaptic activity through dir...
متن کاملA role for phospholipase D1 in neurotransmitter release.
Phosphatidic acid produced by phospholipase D (PLD) as a result of signaling activity is thought to play a role in membrane vesicle trafficking, either as an intracellular messenger or as a cone-shaped lipid that promotes membrane fusion. We recently described that, in neuroendocrine cells, plasma membrane-associated PLD1 operates at a stage of Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis subsequent to cytoskel...
متن کاملNeurotransmitter : Release
The nervous system is composed of networks of cells that engage in coordinated circuits to permit neural function. Within these precise neural circuits, communication between individual cells is primarily chemical in nature. Neurotransmitter release via exocytosis of neurotransmitter-filled synaptic vesicles is a fundamental step in this process. Here we overview the biochemical processes that ...
متن کاملReinvestigation of the role of snapin in neurotransmitter release.
Snapin, a 15-kDa protein, has been identified recently as a binding partner of SNAP-25. Moreover, snapin is regulated by phosphorylation and enhances synaptotagmin binding to SNAREs. Furthermore, snapin and C-terminal snapin fragments have been effective in changing the release properties of neurons and chromaffin cells. Here we have reinvestigated the role of snapin using both biochemical and ...
