摘要: The dynamics of postsynaptic density (PSD) formation and remodeling were investigated in live developing hippocampal tissue slices. Time lapse imaging transfected neurons expressing GFP-tagged PSD95, a prominent PSD protein, revealed that up to 40% PSDs dendrites are structurally dynamic; they rapidly (<15 min) appear or disappear, but also grow, shrink move within shafts spines. New spines containing formed by conversion dynamic filopodia-like spine precursors which appeared de novo, direct extension carrying preformed from the shaft. therefore highly structures can undergo rapid structural alteration dendrite shafts, precursors, permitting synaptic connections CNS tissues.
