| Annotation description: | Regulation of Ca++ stores in spines. And in turn regulation of morphological and functional spine plasticity. "The mechanism through which SP may promote plasticity is indicated by the observations that STIM-1, the sensor of calcium concentration in stores, and Orai-1, the calcium-induced calcium entry channel, are colocalized with SP, in the same dendritic spines." Comparison of WT and SP-KO mice. Figure 6. Ca++ transients in response to photolysis of caged glutamate are larger in synaptopodin-containing spines regardless of spine shape 17/3/2017 Pim Fig.1/2: SP-KO results in changed synaptic transmission Fig.6: Ca++ transients in response to photolysis of caged glutamate are larger in synaptopodin-containing spines regardless of spine shape Fig.7: intracellular Ca-stores are responsible Fig.8/9: SER is involved since STIM1 and Orai1 move into spines. |
