Homer1a drives homeostatic scaling-down of excitatory synapses during sleep

Abstract: Sleep is an essential process that supports learning and memory by acting on synapses through poorly understood molecular mechanisms. Using biochemistry, proteomics, and imaging in mice, we find that during sleep, synapses undergo widespread alterations in composition and signaling, including weakening of synapses through removal and dephosphorylation of synaptic AMPA-type glutamate receptors. These changes are driven by the immediate early gene Homer1a and signaling from group I metabotropic glutamate recepto… Show more

“…Synaptic scaling is also observed in vivo (Desai et al, 2002; Diering et al, 2017; Hengen et al, 2016; Lee and Whitt, 2015). A wide range of intracellular and extracellular molecules and signaling pathways regulate homeostatic scaling.…”

“…A recent study showed that the removal of AMPA receptors in mouse forebrain during sleep depends on the disruption of group I mGluR signaling scaffolds by Homer1a [112]. It is proposed that this mechanism of homeostatic scaling is coordinated by circadian patterns of noradrenaline and adenosine during the accumulation of sleep need, and which promotes synaptic remodeling for the facilitation of memory consolidation [112]. …”

“…The role of Homer1a in homeostatic synaptic scaling extends to the regulation of AMPA receptors during sleep [112-114]. A recent study showed that the removal of AMPA receptors in mouse forebrain during sleep depends on the disruption of group I mGluR signaling scaffolds by Homer1a [112].…”

“…A recent neurochemical study examining sleep-loss-induced HOMER1a association with synaptic PSD95 protein (14), showed that beta- and alpha-receptor antagonists could prevent the normal NE-mediated inhibition of HOMER1a-PSD95 binding. This provide a correlation between waking induced NE tone and the interference with synaptic PSD95-Homer1a binding.…”
