Miniature synaptic transmission and BDNF modulate dendritic spine growth and form in rat CA1 neurones.
The refinement and plasticity of neuronal connections require synaptic activity and neurotrophin signalling; their specific contributions and interplay are, however, poorly understood. We show here that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) increased spine density in apical dendrites of CA1 pyramidal neurones in organotypic slice cultures prepared from postnatal rat hippocampal slices. This ...
متن کاملBDNF enhances quantal neurotransmitter release and increases the number of docked vesicles at the active zones of hippocampal excitatory synapses.
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is emerging as a key mediator of activity-dependent modifications of synaptic strength in the CNS. We investigated the hypothesis that BDNF enhances quantal neurotransmitter release by modulating the distribution of synaptic vesicles within presynaptic terminals using organotypic slice cultures of postnatal rat hippocampus. BDNF specifically increased th...
متن کاملERK1/2 activation is necessary for BDNF to increase dendritic spine density in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons.
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a potent modulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity in the CNS, acting both pre- and postsynaptically. We demonstrated recently that BDNF/TrkB signaling increases dendritic spine density in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons. Here, we tested whether activation of the prominent ERK (MAPK) signaling pathway was responsible for BDNF's effects on sp...
متن کاملRapid and reversible formation of spine head filopodia in response to muscarinic receptor activation in CA1 pyramidal cells.
A key feature at excitatory synapses is the remodelling of dendritic spines, which in conjunction with receptor trafficking modifies the efficacy of neurotransmission. Here we investigated whether activation of cholinergic receptors, which can modulate synaptic plasticity, also mediates changes in dendritic spine structure. Using confocal time-lapse microscopy in mouse slice cultures we found t...
متن کاملNeurotrophin and Wnt signaling cooperatively regulate dendritic spine formation☆
Dendritic spines are major sites of excitatory synaptic transmission and changes in their numbers and morphology have been associated with neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a secreted growth factor that influences hippocampal, striatal and neocortical pyramidal neuron dendritic spine density. However, the mechanisms by which BDNF reg...
