| Research Abstract |
To understand the mechanisms by which soluble proteins such as Munc18-1, tomosyn 1 and synaphin/complexin regulate synaptic vesicle exocytosis, we generated hippocampal CA3-specific knockout(KO) mice of Munc18-1 and tomosyn 1. Neuronal degeneration was already apparent 1week after birth in mice lacking the Munc18-1 gene in the CA3 region, rendering the analysis of synaptic transmission difficult. Tomosyn 1 KO mice exhibited larger EPSPs and smaller paired pulse facilitations. The involvement of the binding of the synaphin C-terminal region with synaptotagmin 1 in dense-core vesicle exocytosis from PC12 cessl was suggested.
