The synaptic vesicle cycle encompasses the pre-synaptic events that drive neurotransmission. Influx of calcium leads to the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane and the release of neurotransmitter, closely followed by endocytosis. Vacated release sites are repopulated with vesicles which are then primed for release. When activity is intense, reserve vesicles may be mobilized to counteract an eventual decline in transmission. Recently, interplay between endocytosis and repopulation of the readily releasable pool of vesicles has been identified. In this study, we show that exo-endocytosis is necessary to enable detachment of synapsin from reserve pool vesicles during synaptic activity. We report that blockage of exocytosis in cultured mouse hippocampal neurons, either by tetanus toxin or by the deletion of munc13, inhibits the activity-dependent redistribution of synapsin from the pre-synaptic terminal into the axon. Likewise, perturbation of endocytosis with dynasore or by a dynamin dominant-negative mutant fully prevents synapsin redistribution. Such inhibition of synapsin redistribution occurred despite the efficient phosphorylation of synapsin at its protein kinase A/CaMKI site, indicating that disengagement of synapsin from the vesicles requires exocytosis and endocytosis in addition to phosphorylation. Our results therefore reveal hitherto unidentified feedback within the synaptic vesicle cycle involving the synapsin-managed reserve pool. 相似文献

It has been hypothesized that in the mature nerve terminal, interactions between synapsin and actin regulate the clustering of synaptic vesicles and the availability of vesicles for release during synaptic activity. Here, we have used immunogold electron microscopy to examine the subcellular localization of actin and synapsin in the giant synapse in lamprey at different states of synaptic activity. In agreement with earlier observations, in synapses at rest, synapsin immunoreactivity was preferentially localized to a portion of the vesicle cluster distal to the active zone. During synaptic activity, however, synapsin was detected in the pool of vesicles proximal to the active zone. In addition, actin and synapsin were found colocalized in a dynamic filamentous cytomatrix at the sites of synaptic vesicle recycling, endocytic zones. Synapsin immunolabeling was not associated with clathrin-coated intermediates but was found on vesicles that appeared to be recycling back to the cluster. Disruption of synapsin function by microinjection of antisynapsin antibodies resulted in a prominent reduction of the cytomatrix at endocytic zones of active synapses. Our data suggest that in addition to its known function in clustering of vesicles in the reserve pool, synapsin migrates from the synaptic vesicle cluster and participates in the organization of the actin-rich cytomatrix in the endocytic zone during synaptic activity. 相似文献

Synapsin I is the most abundant brain phosphoprotein present in conventional synapses of the CNS. Knockout and rescue experiments have demonstrated that synapsin is essential for clustering of synaptic vesicles (SVs) at active zones and the organization of the reserve pool of SVs. However, in spite of intense efforts it remains largely unknown how exactly synapsin I performs this function. It has been proposed that synapsin I in its dephosphorylated state may tether SVs to actin filaments within the cluster from where SVs are released in response to activity-induced synapsin phosphorylation. Recent studies, however, have failed to detect actin filaments inside the vesicle cluster at resting central synapses. Instead, proteins with established functional roles in SV recycling have been found within this presynaptic compartment. Here we discuss potential alternative mechanisms of synapsin I-dependent SV clustering in the reserve pool. 相似文献

Synapsins as regulators of neurotransmitter release 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19

One of the crucial issues in understanding neuronal transmission is to define the role(s) of the numerous proteins that are localized within presynaptic terminals and are thought to participate in the regulation of the synaptic vesicle life cycle. Synapsins are a multigene family of neuron-specific phosphoproteins and are the most abundant proteins on synaptic vesicles. Synapsins are able to interact in vitro with lipid and protein components of synaptic vesicles and with various cytoskeletal proteins, including actin. These and other studies have led to a model in which synapsins, by tethering synaptic vesicles to each other and to an actin-based cytoskeletal meshwork, maintain a reserve pool of vesicles in the vicinity of the active zone. Perturbation of synapsin function in a variety of preparations led to a selective disruption of this reserve pool and to an increase in synaptic depression, suggesting that the synapsin-dependent cluster of vesicles is required to sustain release of neurotransmitter in response to high levels of neuronal activity. In a recent study performed at the squid giant synapse, perturbation of synapsin function resulted in a selective disruption of the reserve pool of vesicles and in addition, led to an inhibition and slowing of the kinetics of neurotransmitter release, indicating a second role for synapsins downstream from vesicle docking. These data suggest that synapsins are involved in two distinct reactions which are crucial for exocytosis in presynaptic nerve terminals. This review describes our current understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which synapsins modulate synaptic transmission, while the increasingly well-documented role of the synapsins in synapse formation and stabilization lies beyond the scope of this review. 相似文献

Information transfer among neurons is operated by neurotransmitters stored in synaptic vesicles and released to the extracellular space by an efficient process of regulated exocytosis. Synaptic vesicles are organized into two distinct functional pools, a large reserve pool in which vesicles are restrained by the actin-based cytoskeleton, and a quantitatively smaller releasable pool in which vesicles approach the presynaptic membrane and eventually fuse with it on stimulation. Both synaptic vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release depend on a precise sequence of events that include release from the reserve pool, targeting to the active zone, docking, priming, fusion and endocytotic retrieval of synaptic vesicles. These steps are mediated by a series of specific interactions among cytoskeletal, synaptic vesicle, presynaptic membrane and cytosolic proteins that, by acting in concert, promote the spatial and temporal regulation of the exocytotic machinery. The majority of these interactions are mediated by specific protein modules and domains that are found in many proteins and are involved in numerous intracellular processes. In this paper, the possible physiological role of these multiple protein-protein interactions is analysed, with ensuing updating and clarification of the present molecular model of the process of neurotransmitter release. 相似文献

Synapsins are a multigene family of neuron-specific phosphoproteins and comprise the most abundant synaptic vesicle proteins.
They have been proposed to tether synaptic vesicles to each other to maintain a reserve pool in the vicinity of the active
zone. Such a role is supported by the observation that disruption of synapsin function leads to a depletion of the reserve
pool of vesicles and an increase in synaptic depression. However, other functions for synapsins have been proposed as well,
and there currently exists no coherent picture of how these abundant proteins modulate synaptic transmission. Here, we discuss
novel insights into how synapsins may regulate neurotransmitter release. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of synapsin I by CaMKII has been reported to mobilize synaptic vesicles from the reserve pool. In the present
study, the distributions of α-CaMKII and of synapsin I were compared in synaptic boutons of unstimulated and stimulated hippocampal
neurons in culture by immunogold electron microscopy. CaMKII and synapsin I are located in separate domains in presynaptic
terminals of unstimulated neurons. Label for α -CaMKII typically surrounds synaptic vesicle clusters and is absent from the
inside of the cluster in control synapses. In contrast, intense labeling for synapsin I is found within the vesicle clusters.
Following 2 minutes of depolarization in high K+, synaptic vesicles decluster and CaMKII label disperses and mingles with vesicles and synapsin I. These results indicate
that, under resting conditions, CaMKII has limited access to the synapsin I in synaptic vesicle clusters. The peripheral distribution
of CaMKII around vesicle clusters suggests that CaMKII-mediated declustering progresses from the periphery towards the center,
with the depth of penetration into the synaptic vesicle cluster depending on the duration of CaMKII activation. Depolarization
also promotes a significant increase in CaMKII immunolabel near the presynaptic active zone. Activity-induced redistribution
of CaMKII leaves it in a position to facilitate phosphorylation of additional presynaptic proteins regulating neurotransmitter
release. 相似文献

Readily releasable and reserve pools of synaptic vesicles play different roles in neurotransmission, and it is important to understand their recycling and interchange in mature central synapses. Using adult rat cerebrocortical synaptosomes, we have shown that 100 mosm hypertonic sucrose caused complete exocytosis of only the readily releasable pool (RRP) of synaptic vesicles containing glutamate or gamma-aminobutyric acid. Repetitive hypertonic stimulations revealed that this pool recycled (and reloaded the neurotransmitter from the cytosol) fully in <30 s and did so independently of the reserve pool. Multiple rounds of exocytosis could occur in the constant absence of extracellular Ca(2+). However, although each vesicle cycle includes a Ca(2+)-independent exocytotic step, some other stage(s) critically require an elevation of cytosolic [Ca(2+)], and this is supplied by intracellular stores. Repetitive recycling also requires energy, but not the activity of phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase, which maintains the normal level of phosphoinositides. By varying the length of hypertonic stimulations, we found that approximately 70% of the RRP vesicles fused completely with the plasmalemma during exocytosis and could then enter silent pools, probably outside active zones. The rest of the RRP vesicles underwent very fast local recycling (possibly by kiss-and-run) and did not leave active zones. Forcing the fully fused RRP vesicles into the silent pool enabled us to measure the transfer of reserve vesicles to the RRP and to show that this process requires intact phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase and actin microfilaments. Our findings also demonstrate that respective vesicle pools have similar characteristics and requirements in excitatory and inhibitory nerve terminals. 相似文献

The actin cytoskeleton and neurotransmitter release: an overview 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Here we review evidence that actin and its binding partners are involved in the release of neurotransmitters at synapses. The spatial and temporal characteristics of neurotransmitter release are determined by the distribution of synaptic vesicles at the active zones, presynaptic sites of secretion. Synaptic vesicles accumulate near active zones in a readily releasable pool that is docked at the plasma membrane and ready to fuse in response to calcium entry and a secondary, reserve pool that is in the interior of the presynaptic terminal. A network of actin filaments associated with synaptic vesicles might play an important role in maintaining synaptic vesicles within the reserve pool. Actin and myosin also have been implicated in the translocation of vesicles from the reserve pool to the presynaptic plasma membrane. Refilling of the readily releasable vesicle pool during intense stimulation of neurotransmitter release also implicates synapsins as reversible links between synaptic vesicles and actin filaments. The diversity of actin binding partners in nerve terminals suggests that actin might have presynaptic functions beyond synaptic vesicle tethering or movement. Because most of these actin-binding proteins are regulated by calcium, actin might be a pivotal participant in calcium signaling inside presynaptic nerve terminals. However, there is no evidence that actin participates in fusion of synaptic vesicles. 相似文献

Synapsins are synaptic vesicle-associated phosphoproteins implicated in the regulation of neurotransmitter release. Synapsin I is the major binding protein for the SH3 domain of the kinase c-Src in synaptic vesicles. Its binding leads to stimulation of synaptic vesicle-associated c-Src activity. We investigated the mechanism and role of Src activation by synapsins on synaptic vesicles. We found that synapsin is tyrosine phosphorylated by c-Src in vitro and on intact synaptic vesicles independently of its phosphorylation state on serine. Mass spectrometry revealed a single major phosphorylation site at Tyr(301), which is highly conserved in all synapsin isoforms and orthologues. Synapsin tyrosine phosphorylation triggered its binding to the SH2 domains of Src or Fyn. However, synapsin selectively activated and was phosphorylated by Src, consistent with the specific enrichment of c-Src in synaptic vesicles over Fyn or n-Src. The activity of Src on synaptic vesicles was controlled by the amount of vesicle-associated synapsin, which is in turn dependent on synapsin serine phosphorylation. Synaptic vesicles depleted of synapsin in vitro or derived from synapsin null mice exhibited greatly reduced Src activity and tyrosine phosphorylation of other synaptic vesicle proteins. Disruption of the Src-synapsin interaction by internalization of either the Src SH3 or SH2 domains into synaptosomes decreased synapsin tyrosine phosphorylation and concomitantly increased neurotransmitter release in response to Ca(2+)-ionophores. We conclude that synapsin is an endogenous substrate and activator of synaptic vesicle-associated c-Src and that regulation of Src activity on synaptic vesicles participates in the regulation of neurotransmitter release by synapsin. 相似文献

Two endocytic recycling routes selectively fill two vesicle pools in frog motor nerve terminals 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
We have identified and characterized two vesicle recycling pathways in frog motor nerve terminals. We exploited the differential staining properties of FM dyes of varying hydrophobicity to label selectively two different vesicle pools, using optical imaging and electron microscopy of photoconverted dyes. During a 1 min tetanus, a rapidly recycling route places vesicles selectively into a small readily releasable pool comprising about 20% of vesicles. After the tetanus, a much slower pathway (from which FM2-10 but not FM1-43 can be rinsed) delivers vesicles via infoldings and cisternae selectively to a reserve pool with a halftime of about 8 min. Mixing between the two pools is slow. During stimulation at 30 Hz, 10-15 s is required to mobilize and release dye from the reserve pool. 相似文献

Ultrastructural observations made in the study of the frog neuromuscular junction (NMJ) almost three decades ago showed that synaptic vesicle cycling functions through a slow pathway, requiring the use of clathrin-coated vesicles and an endosomal compartment. Simultaneously, a conceptually simpler model emerged, postulating rapid retrieval of vesicle membrane through a mechanism similar to a reversal of vesicle fusion. With the advent of fluorescence imaging which allows the investigator to monitor recycling in living nerve-muscle preparations, new data appeared which reconcile at least in part the two models, indicating that both may be important at this synapse. Two different synaptic vesicle pools can be defined, a readily releasable pool (RRP), consisting of quanta that are immediately available for release, and a reserve pool (RP) that is exocytosed only after prolonged stimulation. Vesicles in the RRP recycle through a fast endocytic pathway, which does not rely on an endosomal compartment, while vesicles in the RP cycle more slowly through formation of infoldings and endosomes and their subsequent severance into vesicles. The two pools mix slowly, and their recycling may be regulated by different mechanisms. 相似文献

At a wide range of synapses, synaptic vesicles reside in distinct pools that respond to different stimuli. The recycling pool supplies the vesicles required for release in response to modest stimulation, whereas the reserve pool is mobilized only by strong stimulation. Multiple pathways have been proposed for the recycling of synaptic vesicles after exocytosis, but the relationship of these pathways to the different synaptic vesicle pools has remained unclear. Synaptic vesicle proteins have also been assumed to undergo recycling as a unit. However, emerging data indicate that differences in the association with distinct endocytic adaptors such as the heterotetrameric adaptor AP3 influence the trafficking of individual synaptic vesicle proteins, affecting the composition of synaptic vesicles and hence their functional characteristics. These observations might begin to account for differences in the properties of different vesicle pools. 相似文献

Using electrophysiology and fluorescence microscopy with dye FM 1-43, a comparative study of peculiarities of neurotransmitter secretion, synaptic vesicle exo-endocytosis and recycling has been carried out in nerve terminals (NT) of the skin-sternal muscle of the frog Rana ridibunda and of the white mouse diaphragm muscle during a long-term high-frequency stimulation (20 imp/s). The obtained data have allowed identifying three synaptic vesicle pools and two recycling ways in the motor NT. In the frog NT, the long-term high-frequency stimulation induced consecutive expenditure of the pool ready to release, the mobilizational, and reserve vesicle pools. The exocytosis rate exceeded markedly the endocytosis rate; the slow synaptic vesicle recycling with replenishment of the reserve pool was predominant. In the mouse NT, only the vesicles of the ready to release and the mobilizational pools, which are replenished predominantly by fast recycling, were exocytosed. The exo- and endocytosis occurred practically in parallel, while vesicles of the reserve pool did not participate in the neurotransmitter secretion. It is suggested that evolution of the motor NT from the poikilothermal to homoiothermal animals went by the way of a decrease of the vesicle pool size, the more economic expenditure and the more effective reuse of synaptic vesicles owing to the high rates of endocytosis and recycling. These peculiarities can provide in NT of homoiothermal animals a long maintenance of neurotransmitter secretion at the steady and sufficiently high level to preserve reliability of synaptic transmission in the process of the high-frequency activity. 相似文献

In our research on mouse diaphragm muscles the dynamic of neurotransmitter secretion and synaptic vesicles recycling (exo-endocytosis cycle) at the long-term rhythmic stimulation (20Hz) are explored using an intracellular microelectrode registration and a fluorescent microscopy. It have been shown, thate change of end plant potentials (EPP) amplitude at the rhythmic training occurs in three phases: initial transient decrease, long amplitude stabilization (1-2 min)--the plateau and secondary slow decrease. After 3 minute stimulations the EPP amplitude recovery observed during several seconds. Loading the synaptic vesicle by fluorescent endocytic dye FM 1-43 had shown that the rhythmic stimulation results to gradual (during 5-6 mines) fluorescence decrease in NT, indicating the synaptic vesicle exocytosis. The quantum analysis of the electrophysiological data and their comparison to the fluorescent researches date has allowed to assume, that mouse motor nerve terminals are characterized by high rate of endocytosis and fast synaptic vesicle reuse (average recycling time about 50 sec) that can provide effective maintenance of synaptic transmission at long high-frequency activity. Sizes of ready releasable and recycling synaptic vesicle pools are quantitatively determined. It is assumed, that vesicle recycling occurs on a short fast way to inclusion in recycling pool. So, in the stimulation protocol that were used the synaptic vesicles from reserve pool remain unused. Thus in our conditions recycling pool vesicles cycle repeatedly without reserve pool release. 相似文献

Maintaining synaptic transmission requires replenishment of docked synaptic vesicles within the readily releasable pool (RRP) from synaptic vesicle clusters in the synapsin-bound reserve pool. We show that synapsin forms a complex with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in intact nerve terminals and that synapsin-associated kinase activity increases on depolarization. Disruption of either PI 3-kinase activity or its interaction with synapsin inhibited replenishment of the RRP, but did not affect exocytosis from the RRP. Thus we conclude that a synapsin-associated PI 3-kinase activity plays a role in synaptic vesicle delivery to the RRP. This also suggests that PI 3-kinase contributes to the maintenance of synaptic transmission during periods of high activity, indicating a possible role in synaptic plasticity. 相似文献

We have assessed the role of synapsins in catecholamine release by comparing the properties of exocytosis in adrenal chromaffin
cells from wild-type and synapsin triple knock-out (TKO) mice. Brief depolarizations led to a greater amount of catecholamine
release in chromaffin cells from TKO mice in comparison to chromaffin cells from wild-type mice. This increase in catecholamine
release was due to an increased number of exocytotic events, while the properties of individual quanta of released catecholamine
were unchanged. Barium ions produced similar amounts of catecholamine release from TKO and wild-type chromaffin cells, suggesting
that the reserve pool of chromaffin granules is unchanged following loss of synapsins. Because expression of synapsin IIa
in TKO chromaffin cells rescued the defect in depolarization-induced exocytosis, the TKO phenotype apparently results from
loss of synapsin IIa. We conclude that synapsin IIa serves as a negative regulator of catecholamine release and that this
protein influences exocytosis from a readily releasable pool of chromaffin granules. Further, because these defects in catecholamine
release are different from those observed for glutamate and GABA release in TKO mice, we conclude that the functions of synapsins
differ for vesicles containing different types of neurotransmitters. 相似文献

Mobility of synaptic vesicles in different pools in resting and stimulated frog motor nerve terminals 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We used fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) to measure the mobility of synaptic vesicles in frog motor nerve terminals. Vesicles belonging to the recycling pool or to the reserve pool were selectively labeled with FM1-43. In resting terminals, vesicles in the reserve pool were immobile, while vesicles in the recycling pool were mobile. Nerve stimulation increased the mobility of reserve pool vesicles. Treatment with latrunculin A, which destroyed actin filaments, had no significant effect on mobility, and reducing the temperature likewise had little effect, suggesting that recycling pool vesicles move by simple diffusion. Application of okadaic acid caused vesicle mobility in both pools to increase to the same level. We could model these and others' results quantitatively by taking into account the relative numbers of mobile and immobile vesicles in each pool, and vesicle packing density, which has a large effect on mobility. 相似文献

At Drosophila neuromuscular junctions, there are two synaptic vesicle pools, namely the exo/endo cycling pool (ECP) and the reserve pool (RP). We studied the recruitment process from RP using a fluorescent dye, FMI-43. During high-frequency nerve stimulation, vesicles in RP were recruited for release, and endocytosed vesicles were incorporated into both pools, whereas with low-frequency stimulation, vesicles were incorporated into and released from ECP. Release of vesicles from RP was detected electrophysiologically after emptying vesicles in the ECP of transmitter by a H+ pump inhibitor. Recruitment from RP was depressed by inhibitors of steps in the cAMP/PKA cascade and enhanced by their activators. In rutabaga (rut) with low cAMP levels, mobilization of vesicles from RP during tetanic stimulation was depressed, while it was enhanced in dunce (dnc) with high cAMP levels. 相似文献

Continuous neurotransmitter release is subjected to synaptic vesicle availability, which in turn depends on vesicle recycling and the traffic of vesicles between pools. We studied the role of Synaptotagmin-7 (Syt-7) in synaptic vesicle accessibility for release in hippocampal neurons in culture. Synaptic boutons from Syt-7 knockout (KO) mice displayed normal basal secretion with no alteration in the RRP size or the probability of release. However, stronger stimuli revealed an increase in the size of the reserve and resting vesicle pools in Syt-7 KO boutons compared with WT. These data suggest that Syt-7 plays a significant role in the vesicle pool homeostasis and, consequently, in the availability of vesicles for synaptic transmission during strong stimulation, probably, by facilitating advancing synaptic vesicles to the readily releasable pool. 相似文献
