Annotation description: | Fig.1: "Spine changes induced by Stau1 siRNA are prevented by NMDA receptor blockade and high Mg2+" Fig.2: "Impairment of FSK-induced L-LTP after Stau1 knockdown during high Mg2+ treatment" Together: mRNA binding/transporting protein Stau1 regulates spine morphology and late-LTP induction. The role in late-LTP induction is independent of the role in morphological changes. Literal: "In conclusion, we found that Stau1 involvement in spine morphogenesis is dependent on NMDA receptor-mediated plasticity in hippocampal pyramidal cells. We also found that Stau1 is required for late-LTP, independently of its role in spine morphogenesis" Note: the role as mRNA binding/transporting protein is not shown in this paper. |
