Long-lasting synaptic plasticity involves changes in both synaptic morphology and electrical signaling (here referred to as structural and functional plasticity). Recent studies have revealed a myriad of molecules and signaling processes that are critical for each of these two forms of plasticity, but whether and how they are mechanistically linked to achieve coordinated changes remain controversial.It is well accepted that functional plasticity at the excitatory synapse is dependent upon the activities of glutamate receptors. While the activation of NMDARs (N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptors) and/or mGluRs (metabotropic glutamate receptors) is required for the induction of many forms of plasticity, AMPARs (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid receptors), the principal mediators of fast excitatory synaptic transmission, are the ultimate targets of modifications that express functional plasticity. Investigations exploring structural plasticity have been mainly focused on the small membranous protrusions on the dendrites called spines. The morphological regulation of these spines is mediated by the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, the predominant structural component of the synapse. In this regard, the Rho family of GTPases, particularly Rac1, RhoA and Cdc42, is found to be the central regulator of spine actin and structural plasticity of the synapse.It is thought that the collaborative interaction between functional and structural factors underlies the sustained or permanent nature of long-lasting synaptic plasticity such as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD), the most extensively studied forms of synaptic plasticity widely regarded as cellular mechanisms for learning and memory. However, data specifically pertaining to whether and how these two distinct components are linked at the molecular level remain sparse. In this regard, we have identified a number of synaptic proteins that are involved in both structural and functional changes during mGluR-dependent LTD (mGluR-LTD). Among these are the GluA2 (formerly called GluR2) subunit of AMPARs, Rac1 and Rac1-activated kinases. We have discovered that these proteins interact and reciprocally regulate each other, which led us to hypothesize that the GluA2–Rac1 interaction may serve as a coordinator between functional and morphological plasticity. In this review, we will briefly discuss the available evidence to support such a hypothesis. 相似文献

Invadosomes are adhesive mechanosensory modules composed of a dense F-actin core surrounded by a ring of adhesion molecules and able to infiltrate compact tissue environment in physiological and pathological conditions. These structures comprise podosomes that are found in a variety of cells under physiological conditions and invadopodia in transformed or cancer cells. Invadosomes are regulated by extracellular matrix signals and are endowed with degradative machinery for extracellular matrix. The ability of extracellular matrix signals to orchestrate the building, dynamics, and function of invadosomes is based on mechano-chemical integrin outside-in signaling and requires integrin cross-talk. This review highlights recent findings that place Src as an inducer and PKC as an amplifier in the assembly of integrin stimulated invadosome through mechanotransduction and polarized endo/exocytic trafficking pathways for key proteolytic and enzymatic activities in a temporally and spatially confined manner. 相似文献

GABA and neuroligin signaling: linking synaptic activity and adhesion in inhibitory synapse development 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
GABA-mediated synaptic inhibition is crucial in neural circuit operations. In mammalian brains, the development of inhibitory synapses and innervation patterns is often a prolonged postnatal process, regulated by neural activity. Emerging evidence indicates that gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) acts beyond inhibitory transmission and regulates inhibitory synapse development. Indeed, GABA(A) receptors not only function as chloride channels that regulate membrane voltage and conductance but also play structural roles in synapse maturation and stabilization. The link from GABA(A) receptors to postsynaptic and presynaptic adhesion is probably mediated, partly by neuroligin-reurexin interactions, which are potent in promoting GABAergic synapse formation. Therefore, similar to glutamate signaling at excitatory synapse, GABA signaling may coordinate maturation of presynaptic and postsynaptic sites at inhibitory synapses. Defining the many steps from GABA signaling to receptor trafficking/stability and neuroligin function will provide further mechanistic insights into activity-dependent development and possibly plasticity of inhibitory synapses. 相似文献

ADAM10 cleavage of N-cadherin and regulation of cell-cell adhesion and beta-catenin nuclear signalling 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Cadherins are critically involved in tissue development and tissue homeostasis. We demonstrate here that neuronal cadherin (N-cadherin) is cleaved specifically by the disintegrin and metalloproteinase ADAM10 in its ectodomain. ADAM10 is not only responsible for the constitutive, but also for the regulated, shedding of this adhesion molecule in fibroblasts and neuronal cells directly regulating the overall levels of N-cadherin expression at the cell surface. The ADAM10-induced N-cadherin cleavage resulted in changes in the adhesive behaviour of cells and also in a dramatic redistribution of beta-catenin from the cell surface to the cytoplasmic pool, thereby influencing the expression of beta-catenin target genes. Our data therefore demonstrate a crucial role of ADAM10 in the regulation of cell-cell adhesion and on beta-catenin signalling, leading to the conclusion that this protease constitutes a central switch in the signalling pathway from N-cadherin at the cell surface to beta-catenin/LEF-1-regulated gene expression in the nucleus. 相似文献

Posttranslational modifications such as palmitoylation have the ability to modulate protein localization and function. The reversible addition of the fatty acid palmitate to proteins has been known to occur in neurons for a considerable amount of time and has been noticed to be of particular importance at synapses. In this issue of Neuron, Huang et al. and Fukata et al. describe their studies of palmitoyl transferases and how these enzymes specifically catalyze the modification of a number of synaptic proteins, including the postsynaptic scaffolding protein PSD-95. 相似文献

Integrins are ubiquitous trans-membrane adhesion molecules that mediate the interaction of cells with the extracellular matrix (ECM). Integrins link cells to the ECM by interacting with the cell cytoskeleton. In cases such as leukocyte binding, integrins mediate cell-cell interactions and cell-ECM interactions. Recent research indicates that integrins also function as signal transduction receptors, triggering a number of intracellular signaling pathways that regulate cell behavior and development. A number of integrins are known to stimulate changes in intracellular calcium levels, resulting in integrin activation. Although changes in intracellular calcium regulate a vast number of cellular functions, this review will discuss the stimulation of calcium signaling by integrins and the role of intracellular calcium in the regulation of integrin-mediated adhesion. 相似文献

Heme oxygenase/carbon monoxide signaling pathways: regulation and functional significance 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Carbon monoxide (CO), a gaseous second messenger, arises in biological systems during the oxidative catabolism of heme by the heme oxygenase (HO) enzymes. HO exists as constitutive (HO-2, HO-3) and inducible isoforms (HO-1), the latter which responds to regulation by multiple stress-stimuli. HO-1 confers protection in vitro and in vivo against oxidative cellular stress. Although the redox active compounds that are generated from HO activity (i.e. iron, biliverdin-IXalpha, and bilirubin-IXa) potentially modulate oxidative stress resistance, increasing evidence points to cytoprotective roles for CO. Though not reactive, CO regulates vascular processes such as vessel tone, smooth muscle proliferation, and platelet aggregation, and possibly functions as a neurotransmitter. The latter effects of CO depend on the activation of guanylate cyclase activity by direct binding to the heme moiety of the enzyme, stimulating the production of cyclic 3':5'-guanosine monophosphate. CO potentially interacts with other intracellular hemoprotein targets, though little is known about the functional significance of such interactions. Recent progress indicates that CO exerts novel anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects dependent on the modulation of the p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK)-signaling pathway. By virtue of these effects, CO confers protection in oxidative lung injury models, and likely plays a role in HO-1 mediated tissue protection. 相似文献

Cell adhesion molecule (CAM) expression is highly regulated during nervous system development to control cell migration, neurite outgrowth, fasciculation, and synaptogenesis. Using electrical stimulation of mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in cell culture, this work shows that N-cadherin expression is regulated by neuronal firing, and that expression of different CAMs is regulated by distinct patterns of neural impulses. N-cadherin was down-regulated by 0.1 or 1 Hz stimulation, but NCAM mRNA and protein levels were not altered by stimulation. L1 was down-regulated by 0.1 Hz stimulation, but not by 0.3 Hz, 1 Hz, or pulsed stimulation. N-cadherin expression was lowered with faster kinetics than L1 (1 vs. 5 days), and L1 mRNA returned to higher levels after terminating the stimulus. The RSLE splice variant of L1 was not regulated by action potential stimulation, and activity-dependent influences on L1 expression were blocked by target-derived influences. The results are consistent with changes in firing pattern accompanying DRG development and suggest that functional activity can influence distinct developmental processes by regulating the relative abundance of different CAMs. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
