- W2104828315 abstract "Action potential-evoked vesicle fusion comprises the majority of neurotransmission within chemical synapses, but action potential-independent spontaneous neurotransmission also contributes to the collection of signals sent to the postsynaptic cell. Previous work has implicated spontaneous neurotransmission in homeostatic synaptic scaling, but few studies have selectively manipulated spontaneous neurotransmission without substantial changes in evoked neurotransmission to study this function in detail. Here we used a quadruple knockdown strategy to reduce levels of proteins within the soluble calcium-binding double C2 domain (Doc2)-like protein family to selectively reduce spontaneous neurotransmission in cultured mouse and rat neurons. Activity-evoked responses appear normal while both excitatory and inhibitory spontaneous events exhibit reduced frequency. Excitatory miniature postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs), but not miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mIPSCs), increase in amplitude after quadruple knockdown. This increase in synaptic efficacy correlates with reduced phosphorylation levels of eukaryotic elongation factor 2 and also requires the presence of elongation factor 2 kinase. Together, these data suggest that spontaneous neurotransmission independently contributes to the regulation of synaptic efficacy, and action potential-evoked and spontaneous neurotransmission can be segregated at least partially on a molecular level. <b>SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT</b> Action potential-evoked and spontaneous neurotransmission have been observed in nervous system circuits as long as methods have existed to measure them. Despite being well studied, controversy still remains about whether these forms of neurotransmission are regulated independently on a molecular level or whether they are simply a continuum of neurotransmission modes. In this study, members of the Doc2 family of presynaptic proteins were eliminated, which caused a reduction in spontaneous neurotransmission, whereas action potential-evoked neurotransmission remained relatively normal. This protein loss also caused an increase in synaptic strength, suggesting that spontaneous neurotransmission is able to communicate independently with the postsynaptic neuron and trigger downstream signaling cascades that regulate the synaptic state." @default.
