Rustling Synaptic Vesicle Cargo after Exocytosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this issue of Neuron, Voglmaier et al. provide new evidence that the retrieval of synaptic vesicle transporters after exocytosis proceeds along at least two different endocytic pathways. This work provides new insight into the mechanisms of sorting synaptic vesicle cargo at the cell surface.

Matrix-dependent local retention of secretory vesicle cargo in cortical neurons.
Neurons secrete many diffusible signals from synaptic and other secretory vesicles. We characterized secretion of guidance cues, neuropeptides, neurotrophins, and proteases from single secretory vesicles using pHluorin-tagged cargo in cortical neurons. Stimulation triggered transient and persistent fusion events. Transient events represented full release followed by cargo diffusion or incomplet...
متن کاملThe iTRAPs: Guardians of Synaptic Vesicle Cargo Retrieval During Endocytosis
The reformation of synaptic vesicles (SVs) during endocytosis is essential for the maintenance of neurotransmission in central nerve terminals. Newly formed SVs must be generated with the correct protein cargo in the correct stoichiometry to be functional for exocytosis. Classical clathrin adaptor protein complexes play a key role in sorting and clustering synaptic vesicle cargo in this regard....
متن کاملClathrin-mediated endocytosis at synapses.
Neurons are communication specialists that convert electrical into chemical signals at specialized cell-cell junctions termed synapses. Arrival of an action potential triggers calcium-regulated exocytosis of neurotransmitter (NT) from small synaptic vesicles (SVs), which then diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to postsynaptic receptors to elicit specific changes within the postsynapti...

متن کاملTransport of a kinesin-cargo pair along microtubules into dendritic spines undergoing synaptic plasticity
Synaptic plasticity often involves changes in the structure and composition of dendritic spines. Vesicular cargos and organelles enter spines either by exocytosing in the dendrite shaft and diffusing into spines or through a kinesin to myosin hand-off at the base of spines. Here we present evidence for microtubule (MT)-based targeting of a specific motor/cargo pair directly into hippocampal den...
