Acute Fasting Regulates Retrograde Synaptic Enhancement through a 4E-BP-Dependent Mechanism
While beneficial effects of fasting on organismal function and health are well appreciated, we know little about the molecular details of how fasting influences synaptic function and plasticity. Our genetic and electrophysiological experiments demonstrate that acute fasting blocks retrograde synaptic enhancement that is normally triggered as a result of reduction in postsynaptic receptor functi...
متن کاملRetrograde neurotrophin signaling through Tollo regulates synaptic growth in Drosophila
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are best characterized for their roles in mediating dorsoventral patterning and the innate immune response. However, recent studies indicate that TLRs are also involved in regulating neuronal growth and development. Here, we demonstrate that the TLR Tollo positively regulates growth of the Drosophila melanogaster larval neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Tollo mutants exhi...
متن کاملThe Fragile X Syndrome Protein Represses Activity-Dependent Translation through CYFIP1, a New 4E-BP
Strong evidence indicates that regulated mRNA translation in neuronal dendrites underlies synaptic plasticity and brain development. The fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) is involved in this process; here, we show that it acts by inhibiting translation initiation. A binding partner of FMRP, CYFIP1/Sra1, directly binds the translation initiation factor eIF4E through a domain that is st...
متن کاملMelanocortin-4 receptor regulates hippocampal synaptic plasticity through a protein kinase A-dependent mechanism.
Learning and memory require orchestrated regulation of both structural and functional synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus. While a neuropeptide alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, α-MSH, has been implicated in memory acquisition and retention, the functional role of its cognate receptor, melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R), in hippocampal-dependent synaptic plasticity has not been explored. In ...
متن کامل4E-BP restrains eIF4E phosphorylation
In eukaryotes, mRNA translation is dependent on the cap-binding protein eIF4E. Through its simultaneous interaction with the mRNA cap structure and with the ribosome-associated eIF4G adaptor protein, eIF4E physically posits the ribosome at the 5' extremity of capped mRNA. eIF4E activity is regulated by phosphorylation on a unique site by the eIF4G-associated kinase MNK. eIF4E assembly with the ...
