The astrocyte-mediated synaptic tagging mechanism operates through coordinated CREB1, S100B, and RAGE (receptor for advanced glycation end products) signaling to regulate synaptic maintenance and protection. Neural activity triggers calcium waves in astrocytes through connexin-43 gap junctions and purinergic P2Y1 receptor activation, leading to calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) activation. Activated CaMKII phosphorylates CREB1 at serine 133 in astrocytic nuclei, promoting t
The activity-dependent trafficking of complement regulators CD55 and CD46 to synaptic surfaces represents a dynamic regulatory mechanism controlling complement-mediated synaptic pruning through vesicular transport and membrane insertion. Rather than static differential expression, CD55 and CD46 undergo rapid, activity-dependent translocation from intracellular vesicular pools to synaptic membranes via SNARE-mediated exocytosis. High-frequency synaptic activity triggers calcium influx through NMD
