Long-term depression of temporoammonic-CA1 hippocampal synaptic transmission.
The temporoammonic pathway, the direct projection from layer III of the entorhinal cortex to area CA1 of the hippocampus, includes both excitatory and inhibitory components that are positioned to be an important source of modulation of the hippocampal output. However, little is known about synaptic plasticity in this pathway. We used field recordings in hippocampal slices prepared from mature (...
متن کاملActivity-dependent synaptic Wnt release regulates hippocampal long term potentiation.
Wnts are important for various developmental and oncogenic processes. Here we show that Wnt signaling functions at synapses in hippocampal neurons. Tetanic stimulations induce N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor-dependent synaptic Wnt3a release, nuclear beta-catenin accumulations, and the activation of Wnt target genes. Suppression of Wnt signaling impairs long term potentiation. Conversely, activati...
متن کاملP-Rex1 Regulates Neutrophil Function
Rac GTPases regulate cytoskeletal structure, gene expression, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Rac2-deficient neutrophils cannot chemotax, produce ROS, or degranulate upon G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation. Deficiency in PI3Kgamma, an upstream regulator of Rac, causes a similar phenotype. P-Rex1, a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Rac, is believed to link GPC...
متن کاملCyclooxygenase-2 regulates prostaglandin E2 signaling in hippocampal long-term synaptic plasticity.
The functional significance of cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and -2), the key enzymes that convert arachidonic acid (AA) to prostaglandins (PGs) in brain, is unclear, although they have been implicated in cellular functions and in some neurologic disorders, including stroke, epilepsy, and Alzheimer's disease. Recent evidence that COX-2 is expressed in postsynaptic dendritic spines (which are specializ...
متن کاملProline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 regulates hippocampal long-term depression.
Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK2), also known as cell adhesion kinase beta or protein tyrosine kinase 2b, is a calcium-dependent signaling protein involved in cell migration. Phosphorylation of residue Y402 is associated with activation of PYK2 and leads to the recruitment of downstream signaling molecules. PYK2 was previously implicated in long-term potentiation (LTP); however, the role of...
