Measurements of vesicle recycling in central neurons.
Neurotransmitter-containing vesicles in presynaptic nerve terminals are essential for synaptic transmission. The vesicles undergo a cycle that leads to transmitter release by exocytosis followed by endocytosis and refilling of the vesicles. Here we discuss new optical methods that have helped researchers study this cycle at functional and molecular levels, which is essential for our understandi...
متن کاملLive Imaging of Synaptic Vesicle Release and Retrieval in Dopaminergic Neurons
Dopaminergic (DA) neurons represent <0.01% of neurons in the human brain, but are essential for normal neurological and psychiatric function. The majority of these neurons reside in the ventral midbrain, but they exert their profound influences on brain function through projections to both the cortex and the basal ganglia. These projections secrete dopamine from small clear synaptic vesicles (S...
متن کاملLocalization and functional significance of the Na+/Ca2+exchanger in presynaptic boutons of hippocampal cells in culture
Immunocytochemical evidence for localized distribution of the Na+/Ca2+ exchange protein in nerve terminals of cultured hippocampal cells is presented together with results on the functional relevance of the exchanger in the control of [Ca2+]i and of synaptic vesicle recycling. The monoclonal antibody R3F1, directed against an epitope on the intracellular loop of the protein, revealed higher den...
متن کاملThe Dual Phosphatase Activity of Synaptojanin1 Is Required for Both Efficient Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis and Reavailability at Nerve Terminals
Phosphoinositides have been implicated in synaptic vesicle recycling largely based on studies of enzymes that regulate phosphoinositide synthesis and hydrolysis. One such enzyme is synaptojanin1, a multifunctional protein conserved from yeast to humans, which contains two phosphoinositol phosphatase domains and a proline-rich domain. Genetic ablation of synaptojanin1 leads to pleiotropic defect...
متن کاملThe kinetics of synaptic vesicle reacidification at hippocampal nerve terminals.
After exocytosis, synaptic vesicles are recycled locally in the synaptic terminal and are refilled with neurotransmitter via vesicular transporters. The biophysical mechanisms of refilling are poorly understood, but it is clear that the generation of a proton gradient across the vesicle membrane is crucial. To better understand the determinants of vesicle refilling, we developed a novel method ...
