Role of ampa receptor endocytosis in synaptic plasticity
Abstract
Activity-mediated changes in the strength of synaptic communication are important for the establishment of proper neuronal connections during development and for the experience-dependent modification of neural circuitry that is believed to underlie all forms of behavioural plasticity. Owing to the wide-ranging significance of synaptic plasticity, considerable efforts have been made to identify the mechanisms by which synaptic changes are triggered and expressed. New evidence indicates that one important expression mechanism of several long-lasting forms of synaptic plasticity might involve the physical transport of AMPA-type glutamate receptors in and out of the synaptic membrane. Here, we focus on the rapidly accumulating evidence that AMPA receptors undergo regulated endocytosis, which is important for long-term depression.

The insertion and removal of AMPARs during LTP and LTD, respectively, is believed to involve classical mechanisms of SNARE protein-mediated exocytosis and dynamin-dependent endocytosis via clathrin-coated vesicles.
“The insertion and removal of AMPARs during LTP and LTD, respectively, is believed to involve classical mechanisms of SNARE protein -mediated exocytosis and dynamin-dependent endocytosis via clathrin-coated vesicles (Lu ¨scher et al. 1999;Carroll et al. 2001;Kennedy and Ehlers 2011).”

There is now strong evidence that calcineurin and PP1 do indeed play a role in LTD, perhaps in part by influencing the phosphorylation state of AMPARs.
“There is now strong evidence that these two phosphatases do indeed play a role in LTD (Mulkey et al. 1993, 1994: Carroll et al. 2001), perhaps in part by influencing the phosphorylation state of AMPARs.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
