Annotation description: | Figure 4: "Long-term depression is impaired in SORCS3-deficient mice" - "the synaptic activation of NMDA receptors triggers the induction of LTD [19,21]. As shown in Figure 4A and B, NMDA receptor-dependent-LTD was absent in hippocampal slices from Sorcs3-/- animals. Another form of LTD is mGluR-dependent whereby synaptic activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors triggers LTD [19,22]. Remarkably, mGluR-dependent LTD was also lost in SORCS3-deficient mice (Figure 4C and D)." Fig.9: "SORCS3 interacts with PICK1 and affects its localization at the postsynaptic density" Note: PICK1 is a protein known to be involved in AMPAR internalization. The overall modal is that SORCS3 is present in the postsynapse and via an unknown mechanism modulates AMPAR internalization. Beacuse the mechanism is unclear I have used the general term 'postsynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission (GO:0099170)'. |
