Na+-mediated coupling between AMPA receptors and KNa channels shapes synaptic transmission.
Na(+)-activated K(+) (K(Na)) channels are expressed in neurons and are activated by Na(+) influx through voltage-dependent channels or ionotropic receptors, yet their function remains unclear. Here we show that K(Na) channels are associated with AMPA receptors and that their activation depresses synaptic responses. Synaptic activation of K(Na) channels by Na(+) transients via AMPA receptors sha...
متن کاملRestless AMPA receptors: implications for synaptic transmission and plasticity.
A central assumption in neurobiology holds that changes in the strength of individual synapses underlie changes in behavior. This concept is widely accepted in the case of learning and memory where LTP and LTD are the most compelling cellular models. It is therefore of great interest to understand, on a molecular level, how the brain regulates the strength of neuronal connections. We review a l...
متن کاملUbiquitin ligase RNF167 regulates AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission.
AMPA receptors (AMPARs) mediate the majority of fast excitatory neurotransmission, and their density at postsynaptic sites determines synaptic strength. Ubiquitination is a posttranslational modification that dynamically regulates the synaptic expression of many proteins. However, very few of the ubiquitinating enzymes implicated in the process have been identified. In a screen to identify tran...
متن کاملGSG1L suppresses AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission and uniquely modulates AMPA receptor kinetics in hippocampal neurons
Regulation of AMPA receptor (AMPAR)-mediated synaptic transmission is a key mechanism for synaptic plasticity. In the brain, AMPARs assemble with a number of auxiliary subunits, including TARPs, CNIHs and CKAMP44, which are important for AMPAR forward trafficking to synapses. Here we report that the membrane protein GSG1L negatively regulates AMPAR-mediated synaptic transmission. Overexpression...
متن کاملAMPA Receptor Activation Causes Silencing of AMPA Receptor-Mediated Synaptic Transmission in the Developing Hippocampus
Agonist-induced internalization of transmembrane receptors is a widespread biological phenomenon that also may serve as a mechanism for synaptic plasticity. Here we show that the agonist AMPA causes a depression of AMPA receptor (AMPAR) signaling at glutamate synapses in the CA1 region of the hippocampus in slices from developing, but not from mature, rats. This developmentally restricted agoni...
