lüll Balancing structure and function at hippocampal dendritic spines Bourne JN; Harris KMAnnu Rev Neurosci 2008[]; 31 (ä): 47-67Dendritic spines are the primary recipients of excitatory input in the central nervous system. They provide biochemical compartments that locally control the signaling mechanisms at individual synapses. Hippocampal spines show structural plasticity as the basis for the physiological changes in synaptic efficacy that underlie learning and memory. Spine structure is regulated by molecular mechanisms that are fine-tuned and adjusted according to developmental age, level and direction of synaptic activity, specific brain region, and exact behavioral or experimental conditions. Reciprocal changes between the structure and function of spines impact both local and global integration of signals within dendrites. Advances in imaging and computing technologies may provide the resources needed to reconstruct entire neural circuits. Key to this endeavor is having sufficient resolution to determine the extrinsic factors (such as perisynaptic astroglia) and the intrinsic factors (such as core subcellular organelles) that are required to build and maintain synapses.|Animals[MESH]|Astrocytes/physiology/ultrastructure[MESH]|Dendritic Spines/*physiology/*ultrastructure[MESH]|Hippocampus/*physiology/*ultrastructure[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Learning/physiology[MESH]|Long-Term Potentiation/physiology[MESH]|Neuronal Plasticity/*physiology[MESH]|Organelles/physiology/ultrastructure[MESH]|Synapses/physiology/ultrastructure[MESH]|Synaptic Transmission/*physiology[MESH] |
