SV2A controls the surface nanoclustering and endocytic recruitment of Syt1 during synaptic vesicle recycling. J Neurochem 2024.

Abstract
Following exocytosis, the recapture of plasma membrane-stranded vesicular proteins into recycling synaptic vesicles (SVs) is essential for sustaining neurotransmission. Surface clustering of vesicular proteins has been proposed to act as a 'pre-assembly' mechanism for endocytosis that ensures high-fidelity retrieval of SV cargo. Here, we used single-molecule imaging to examine the nanoclustering of synaptotagmin-1 (Syt1) and synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) in hippocampal neurons. Syt1 forms surface nanoclusters through the interaction of its C2B domain with SV2A, which are sensitive to mutations in this domain (Syt1K326A/K328A) and SV2A knockdown. SV2A co-clustering with Syt1 is reduced by blocking SV2A's cognate interaction with Syt1 (SV2AT84A). Surprisingly, impairing SV2A-Syt1 nanoclustering enhanced the plasma membrane recruitment of key endocytic protein dynamin-1, causing accelerated Syt1 endocytosis, altered intracellular sorting and decreased trafficking of Syt1 to Rab5-positive endocytic compartments. Therefore, SV2A and Syt1 are segregated from the endocytic machinery in surface nanoclusters, limiting dynamin recruitment and negatively regulating Syt1 entry into recycling SVs.

Abstract
Frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are common forms of neurodegenerative disease that share overlapping genetics and pathologies. Crucially, no significantly disease-modifying treatments are available for either disease. Identifying the earliest changes that initiate neuronal dysfunction is important for designing effective intervention therapeutics. The genes mutated in genetic forms of frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have diverse cellular functions, and multiple disease mechanisms have been proposed for both. Identification of a convergent disease mechanism in frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis would focus research for a targetable pathway, which could potentially effectively treat all forms of frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (both familial and sporadic). Synaptopathies are diseases resulting from physiological dysfunction of synapses, and define the earliest stages in multiple neuronal diseases, with synapse loss a key feature in dementia. At the presynapse, the process of synaptic vesicle recruitment, fusion and recycling is necessary for activity-dependent neurotransmitter release. The unique distal location of the presynaptic terminal means the tight spatio-temporal control of presynaptic homeostasis is dependent on efficient local protein translation and degradation. Recently, numerous publications have shown that mutations associated with frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis present with synaptopathy characterized by presynaptic dysfunction. This review will describe the complex local signalling and membrane trafficking events that occur at the presynapse to facilitate neurotransmission and will summarize recent publications linking frontotemporal dementia/amyotrophic lateral sclerosis genetic mutations to presynaptic function. This evidence indicates that presynaptic synaptopathy is an early and convergent event in frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and illustrates the need for further research in this area, to identify potential therapeutic targets with the ability to impact this convergent pathomechanism.

Abstract
Dynamin 1 mediates fission of endocytic synaptic vesicles in the brain and has two major splice variants, Dyn1xA and Dyn1xB, which are nearly identical apart from the extended C-terminal region of Dyn1xA. Despite a similar set of binding partners, only Dyn1xA is enriched at endocytic zones and accelerates vesicle fission during ultrafast endocytosis. Here, we report that Dyn1xA achieves this localization by preferentially binding to Endophilin A1 through a newly defined binding site within its long C-terminal tail extension. Endophilin A1 binds this site at higher affinity than the previously reported site, and the affinity is determined by amino acids within the Dyn1xA tail but outside the binding site. This interaction is regulated by the phosphorylation state of two serine residues specific to the Dyn1xA variant. Dyn1xA and Endophilin A1 colocalize in patches near the active zone, and mutations disrupting Endophilin A binding to the long tail cause Dyn1xA mislocalization and stalled endocytic pits on the plasma membrane during ultrafast endocytosis. Together, these data suggest that the specificity for ultrafast endocytosis is defined by the phosphorylation-regulated interaction of Endophilin A1 with the C-terminal extension of Dyn1xA.

Abstract
Endocytosis requires a coordinated framework of molecular interactions that ultimately lead to the fission of nascent endocytic structures. How cytosolic proteins such as dynamin concentrate at discrete sites that are sparsely distributed across the plasma membrane remains poorly understood. Two dynamin-1 major splice variants differ by the length of their C-terminal proline-rich region (short-tail and long-tail). Using sptPALM in PC12 cells, neurons and MEF cells, we demonstrate that short-tail dynamin-1 isoforms ab and bb display an activity-dependent recruitment to the membrane, promptly followed by their concentration into nanoclusters. These nanoclusters are sensitive to both Calcineurin and dynamin GTPase inhibitors, and are larger, denser, and more numerous than that of long-tail isoform aa. Spatiotemporal modelling confirms that dynamin-1 isoforms perform distinct search patterns and undergo dimensional reduction to generate endocytic nanoclusters, with short-tail isoforms more robustly exploiting lateral trapping in the generation of nanoclusters compared to the long-tail isoform.

Abstract
Circuit refinement involves the formation of new presynaptic boutons as others are dismantled. Nascent presynaptic sites can incorporate material from recently eliminated synapses, but the recycling mechanisms remain elusive. In early-stage C. elegans larvae, the presynaptic boutons of GABAergic DD neurons are removed and new outputs established at alternative sites. Here, we show that developmentally regulated expression of the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) UNC-8 in remodeling DD neurons promotes a Ca2+ and actin-dependent mechanism, involving activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE), that recycles presynaptic material for reassembly at nascent DD synapses. ADBE normally functions in highly active neurons to accelerate local recycling of synaptic vesicles. In contrast, we find that an ADBE-like mechanism results in the distal recycling of synaptic material from old to new synapses. Thus, our findings suggest that a native mechanism (ADBE) can be repurposed to dismantle presynaptic terminals for reassembly at new, distant locations.

Abstract
Dynamin 1 (Dyn1) has two major splice variants, xA and xB, with unique C-terminal extensions of 20 and 7 amino acids, respectively. Of these, only Dyn1xA is enriched at endocytic zones and accelerates vesicle fission during ultrafast endocytosis. Here, we report that the long tail variant, Dyn1xA, achieves this localization by preferentially binding to Endophilin A through a newly defined Class II binding site overlapping with its extension, at a site spanning the splice boundary. Endophilin binds this site at higher affinity than the previously reported site, and this affinity is determined by amino acids outside the binding sites acting as long distance elements within the xA tail. Their interaction is regulated by the phosphorylation state of two serine residues specific to the xA variant. Dyn1xA and Endophilin colocalize in patches near the active zone of synapses. Mutations selectively disrupting Endophilin binding to the long extension cause Dyn1xA mislocalization along axons. In these mutants, endocytic pits are stalled on the plasma membrane during ultrafast endocytosis. These data suggest that the specificity for ultrafast endocytosis is defined by the phospho-regulated interaction of Endophilin A through a newly identified site of Dyn1xA's long tail.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIα (PI4KIIα) generates essential phospholipids and is a cargo for endosomal adaptor proteins. Activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE) is the dominant synaptic vesicle endocytosis mode during high neuronal activity and is sustained by glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) activity. We reveal the GSK3β substrate PI4KIIα is essential for ADBE via its depletion in primary neuronal cultures. Kinase-dead PI4KIIα rescues ADBE in these neurons but not a phosphomimetic form mutated at the GSK3β site, Ser-47. Ser-47 phosphomimetic peptides inhibit ADBE in a dominant-negative manner, confirming that Ser-47 phosphorylation is essential for ADBE. Phosphomimetic PI4KIIα interacts with a specific cohort of presynaptic molecules, two of which, AGAP2 and CAMKV, are also essential for ADBE when depleted in neurons. Thus, PI4KIIα is a GSK3β-dependent interaction hub that silos essential ADBE molecules for liberation during neuronal activity.

Abstract
Dynamin mediates fission of vesicles from the plasma membrane during endocytosis. Typically, dynamin is recruited from the cytosol to endocytic sites, requiring seconds to tens of seconds. However, ultrafast endocytosis in neurons internalizes vesicles as quickly as 50 ms during synaptic vesicle recycling. Here, we demonstrate that Dynamin 1 is pre-recruited to endocytic sites for ultrafast endocytosis. Specifically, Dynamin 1xA, a splice variant of Dynamin 1, interacts with Syndapin 1 to form molecular condensates on the plasma membrane. Single-particle tracking of Dynamin 1xA molecules confirms the liquid-like property of condensates in vivo. When Dynamin 1xA is mutated to disrupt its interaction with Syndapin 1, the condensates do not form, and consequently, ultrafast endocytosis slows down by 100-fold. Mechanistically, Syndapin 1 acts as an adaptor by binding the plasma membrane and stores Dynamin 1xA at endocytic sites. This cache bypasses the recruitment step and accelerates endocytosis at synapses.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system that finally leads to demyelination. Demyelinating optic neuritis is a frequent symptom in MS. Recent studies also revealed synapse dysfunctions in MS patients and MS mouse models. We previously reported alterations of photoreceptor ribbon synapses in the experimental auto-immune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mouse model of MS. In the present study, we found that the previously observed decreased imunosignals of photoreceptor ribbons in early EAE resulted from a decrease in synaptic ribbon size, whereas the number/density of ribbons in photoreceptor synapses remained unchanged. Smaller photoreceptor ribbons are associated with fewer docked and ribbon-associated vesicles. At a functional level, depolarization-evoked exocytosis as monitored by optical recording was diminished even as early as on day 7 after EAE induction. Moreover compensatory, post-depolarization endocytosis was decreased. Decreased post-depolarization endocytosis in early EAE correlated with diminished synaptic enrichment of dynamin3. In contrast, basal endocytosis in photoreceptor synapses of resting non-depolarized retinal slices was increased in early EAE. Increased basal endocytosis correlated with increased de-phosphorylation of dynamin1. Thus, multiple endocytic pathways in photoreceptor synapse are differentially affected in early EAE and likely contribute to the observed synapse pathology in early EAE.

Abstract
Synaptic vesicle (SV) endocytosis is coupled to exocytosis to maintain SV pool size and thus neurotransmitter release. Intense stimulation induces activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE) to recapture large quantities of SV constituents in large endosomes from which SVs reform. How these consecutive processes are spatiotemporally coordinated remains unknown. Here, we show that Flower Ca2+ channel-dependent phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) compartmentalization governs control of these processes in Drosophila. Strong stimuli trigger PI(4,5)P2 microdomain formation at periactive zones. Upon exocytosis, Flower translocates from SVs to periactive zones, where it increases PI(4,5)P2 levels via Ca2+ influxes. Remarkably, PI(4,5)P2 directly enhances Flower channel activity, thereby establishing a positive feedback loop for PI(4,5)P2 microdomain compartmentalization. PI(4,5)P2 microdomains drive ADBE and SV reformation from bulk endosomes. PI(4,5)P2 further retrieves Flower to bulk endosomes, terminating endocytosis. We propose that the interplay between Flower and PI(4,5)P2 is the crucial spatiotemporal cue that couples exocytosis to ADBE and subsequent SV reformation.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 46A1 encoded by CYP46A1 catalyzes cholesterol 24-hydroxylation and is a CNS-specific enzyme that controls cholesterol removal and turnover in the brain. Accumulating data suggest that increases in cytochrome P450 46A1 activity in mouse models of common neurodegenerative diseases affect various, apparently unlinked biological processes and pathways. Yet, the underlying reason for these multiple enzyme activity effects is currently unknown. Herein, we tested the hypothesis that cytochrome P450 46A1-mediated sterol flux alters physico-chemical properties of the plasma membranes and thereby membrane-dependent events. We used 9-month old 5XFAD mice (an Alzheimer's disease model) treated for 6 months with the anti-HIV drug efavirenz. These animals have previously been shown to have improved behavioral performance, increased cytochrome P450 46A1 activity in the brain, and increased sterol flux through the plasma membranes. We further examined 9-month old Cyp46a1 -/- mice, which have previously been observed to have cognitive deficits and decreased sterol flux through brain membranes. Synaptosomal fractions from the brain of efavirenz-treated 5XFAD mice had essentially unchanged cholesterol levels as compared to control 5XFAD mice. However with efavirenz treatment in these mice, there were changes in the membrane properties (increased cholesterol accessibility, ordering, osmotic resistance, and thickness) as well as total glutamate content and ability to release glutamate in response to mild stimulation. Similarly, the cholesterol content in synaptosomal fractions from the brain of Cyp46a1 -/- mice was essentially the same as in wild type mice but knockout of Cyp46a1 was associated with changes in membrane properties and glutamate content and its exocytotic release. Changes in Cyp46a1 -/- mice were in the opposite direction to those observed in efavirenz-treated vs control 5XFAD mice. Incubation of synaptosomal fractions with the inhibitors of glycogen synthase kinase 3, cyclin-dependent kinase 5, protein phosphatase 1/2A or calcineurin, and protein phosphatase 2B revealed that increased sterol flux in efavirenz-treated vs control 5XFAD mice affected the ability of all four enzymes to modulate glutamate release. In contrast, in Cyp46a1 -/- vs wild type mice, decreased sterol flux altered the ability of only cyclin-dependent kinase 5 and protein phosphatase 2B to regulate the glutamate release. Collectively, our results support cytochrome P450 46A1-mediated sterol flux as an important contributor to the fundamental properties of the membranes, protein phosphorylation, and synaptic transmission Also, our data provide an explanation of how one enzyme, cytochrome P450 46A1, can affect multiple pathways and processes and serve as a common potential target for several neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
Activity‐dependent bulk endocytosis generates synaptic vesicles (SVs) during intense neuronal activity via a two‐step process. First, bulk endosomes are formed direct from the plasma membrane from which SVs are then generated. SV generation from bulk endosomes requires the efflux of previously accumulated calcium and activation of the protein phosphatase calcineurin. However, it is still unknown how calcineurin mediates SV generation. We addressed this question using a series of acute interventions that decoupled the generation of SVs from bulk endosomes in rat primary neuronal culture. This was achieved by either disruption of protein–protein interactions via delivery of competitive peptides, or inhibition of enzyme activity by known inhibitors. SV generation was monitored using either a morphological horseradish peroxidase assay or an optical assay that monitors the replenishment of the reserve SV pool. We found that SV generation was inhibited by, (i) peptides that disrupt calcineurin interactions, (ii) an inhibitor of dynamin I GTPase activity and (iii) peptides that disrupt the phosphorylation‐dependent dynamin I–syndapin I interaction. Peptides that disrupted syndapin I interactions with eps15 homology domain‐containing proteins had no effect. This revealed that (i) calcineurin must be localized at bulk endosomes to mediate its effect, (ii) dynamin I GTPase activity is essential for SV fission and (iii) the calcineurin‐dependent interaction between dynamin I and syndapin I is essential for SV generation. We therefore propose that a calcineurin‐dependent dephosphorylation cascade that requires both dynamin I GTPase and syndapin I lipid‐deforming activity is essential for SV generation from bulk endosomes. ![]()

Abstract
The timely and reliable processing of auditory and vestibular information within the inner ear requires highly sophisticated sensory transduction pathways. On a cellular level, these demands are met by hair cells, which respond to sound waves - or alterations in body positioning - by releasing glutamate-filled synaptic vesicles (SVs) from their presynaptic active zones with unprecedented speed and exquisite temporal fidelity, thereby initiating the auditory and vestibular pathways. In order to achieve this, hair cells have developed anatomical and molecular specializations, such as the characteristic and name-giving 'synaptic ribbons' - presynaptically anchored dense bodies that tether SVs prior to release - as well as other unique or unconventional synaptic proteins. The tightly orchestrated interplay between these molecular components enables not only ultrafast exocytosis, but similarly rapid and efficient compensatory endocytosis. So far, the knowledge of how endocytosis operates at hair cell ribbon synapses is limited. In this Review, we summarize recent advances in our understanding of the SV cycle and molecular anatomy of hair cell ribbon synapses, with a focus on cochlear inner hair cells.

Abstract
Long-term treatment with the potent immunosuppressive drug cyclosporine A (CsA) results in chronic nephrotoxicity. Its immunosuppressive properties are due to the inhibition of the calcium- and calmodulin-dependent phosphatase protein calcineurin A (CnA) which has three catalytic isoforms. Of those, the CnAα and β isoforms are ubiquitously expressed, particularly in the kidney. Additionally, chronic nephrotoxicity has been associated with an imbalance of extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and degradation resulting in an accumulation of ECM molecules. This study evaluates whether the expressions of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9) induced by CsA are calcineurin isoform specific. Wild-type (WT), CnAα knockout (CnAα-/-) and CnAβ knockout (CnAβ-/-) kidney fibroblast cell lines (an in vitro innovative tool that was previously created in our lab) were treated with CsA at 10 ng/ml for 48 h. ELISA analysis demonstrated that the CsA-induced secretion profile of MMP-9 was highest in CnAα-/- cells and lowest in CnAβ-/- cells vs. WT cells. In contrast, CsA did not induce an increase in MMP-2 protein levels in WT, CnAα-/- nor CnAβ-/- renal fibroblasts. These results indicate that MMP-9 secretion is CnA-isoform specific, i.e. the CnAβ isoform contributes to the CsA-induced upregulation of MMP-9 while the CnAα does not. As such, understanding the role of calcineurin A isoforms in the regulation of the homeostasis of ECM degradation in the kidney after long-term CsA treatment needs to be further investigated.

Abstract
Neurotransmission in complex animals depends on a choir of functionally distinct synapses releasing neurotransmitters in a highly coordinated manner. During synaptic signaling, vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane to release their contents. The rate of vesicle fusion is high and can exceed the rate at which synaptic vesicles can be re-supplied by distant sources. Thus, local compensatory endocytosis is needed to replenish the synaptic vesicle pools. Over the last four decades, various experimental methods and model systems have been used to study the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic vesicle cycle. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is thought to be the predominant mechanism for synaptic vesicle recycling. However, recent studies suggest significant contribution from other modes of endocytosis, including fast compensatory endocytosis, activity-dependent bulk endocytosis, ultrafast endocytosis, as well as kiss-and-run. Currently, it is not clear whether a universal model of vesicle recycling exist for all types of synapses. It is possible that each synapse type employs a particular mode of endocytosis. Alternatively, multiple modes of endocytosis operate at the same synapse, and the synapse toggles between different modes depending on its activity level. Here we compile review and research articles based on well-characterized model systems: frog neuromuscular junctions, C. elegans neuromuscular junctions, Drosophila neuromuscular junctions, lamprey reticulospinal giant axons, goldfish retinal ribbon synapses, the calyx of Held, and rodent hippocampal synapses. We will compare these systems in terms of their known modes and kinetics of synaptic vesicle endocytosis, as well as the underlying molecular machineries. We will also provide the future development of this field.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is the major endocytic pathway in mammalian cells. It is responsible for the uptake of transmembrane receptors and transporters, for remodeling plasma membrane composition in response to environmental changes, and for regulating cell surface signaling. CME occurs via the assembly and maturation of clathrin-coated pits that concentrate cargo as they invaginate and pinch off to form clathrin-coated vesicles. In addition to the major coat proteins, clathrin triskelia and adaptor protein complexes, CME requires a myriad of endocytic accessory proteins and phosphatidylinositol lipids. CME is regulated at multiple steps-initiation, cargo selection, maturation, and fission-and is monitored by an endocytic checkpoint that induces disassembly of defective pits. Regulation occurs via posttranslational modifications, allosteric conformational changes, and isoform and splice-variant differences among components of the CME machinery, including the GTPase dynamin. This review summarizes recent findings on the regulation of CME and the evolution of this complex process.

Abstract
In the present study, we generated and characterized a splice site-specific monoclonal antibody that selectively detects the calcineurin-binding dynamin1 splice variant dynamin1xb. Calcineurin is a Ca2+-regulated phosphatase that enhances dynamin1 activity and is an important Ca2+-sensing mediator of homeostatic synaptic plasticity in neurons. Using this dynamin1xb-specific antibody, we found dynamin1xb highly enriched in synapses of all analyzed brain regions. In photoreceptor ribbon synapses, dynamin1xb was enriched in close vicinity to the synaptic ribbon in a manner indicative of a peri-active zone immunolabeling. Interestingly, in dark-adapted mice we observed an enhanced and selective enrichment of dynamin1xb in both synaptic layers of the retina in comparison to light-adapted mice. This could be due to an illumination-dependent recruitment of dynamin1xb to retinal synapses and/or due to a darkness-induced increase of dynamin1xb biosynthesis. These latter findings indicate that dynamin1xb is part of a versatile and highly adjustable, activity-regulated endocytic synaptic machinery.

Abstract
At nerve terminals, endocytosis efficiently recycles vesicle membrane to maintain synaptic transmission under different levels of neuronal activity. Ca(2+) and its downstream signal pathways are critical for the activity-dependent regulation of endocytosis. An activity- and Ca(2+) -dependent kinase, myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) has been reported to regulate vesicle mobilization, vesicle cycling, and motility in different synapses, but whether it has a general contribution to regulation of endocytosis at nerve terminals remains unknown. We investigated this issue at rat hippocampal boutons by imaging vesicle endocytosis as the real-time retrieval of vesicular synaptophysin tagged with a pH-sensitive green fluorescence protein. We found that endocytosis induced by 200 action potentials (5-40 Hz) was slowed by acute inhibition of MLCK and down-regulation of MLCK with RNA interference, while the total amount of vesicle exocytosis and somatic Ca(2+) channel current did not change with MLCK down-regulation. Acute inhibition of myosin II similarly impaired endocytosis. Furthermore, down-regulation of MLCK prevented depolarization-induced phosphorylation of myosin light chain, an effect shared by blockers of Ca(2+) channels and calmodulin. These results suggest that MLCK facilitates vesicle endocytosis through activity-dependent phosphorylation of myosin downstream of Ca(2+) /calmodulin, probably as a widely existing mechanism among synapses. Our study suggests that MLCK is an important activity-dependent regulator of vesicle recycling in hippocampal neurons, which are critical for learning and memory. The kinetics of vesicle membrane endocytosis at nerve terminals has long been known to depend on activity and Ca(2+) . This study provides evidence suggesting that myosin light chain kinase increases endocytosis efficiency at hippocampal neurons by mediating Ca(2+) /calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation of myosin. The authors propose that this signal cascade may serve as a common pathway contributing to the activity-dependent regulation of vesicle endocytosis at synapses.

Abstract
Neurons express three closely related dynamin genes. Dynamin 1 has long been implicated in the regulation of synaptic vesicle recycling in nerve terminals, and dynamins 2 and 3 were more recently shown also to contribute to synaptic vesicle recycling in specific and distinguishable ways. In cultured hippocampal neurons we found that chronic suppression of spontaneous network activity differentially regulated the targeting of endogenous dynamins 1 and 3 to nerve terminals, while dynamin 2 was unaffected. Specifically, when neural activity was chronically silenced for 1-2weeks by tetrodotoxin (TTX), the clustering of dynamin 1 at nerve terminals was reduced, while the clustering of dynamin 3 significantly increased. Moreover, dynamin 3 clustering was induced within hours by the sustained blockade of AMPA receptors, suggesting that AMPA receptors may function to prevent Dyn3 accumulation within nerve terminals. Clustering of dynamin 3 was induced by an antagonist of the calcium-dependent protein phosphatase calcineurin, but was not dependent upon intact actin filaments. TTX-induced clustering of Dyn3 occurred with a markedly slower time-course than the previously described clustering of synapsin 1. Potassium-induced depolarization rapidly de-clustered dynamin 3 from nerve terminals within minutes. These results, which have implications for homeostatic synapse restructuring, indicate that the three dynamins have evolved different regulatory mechanisms for trafficking to and from nerve terminals in response to changes in neural activity.

Abstract
Two-pore domain potassium (K2P) channels are implicated in an array of physiological and pathophysiological roles. As a result of their biophysical properties, these channels produce a background leak K+ current which has a direct effect on cellular membrane potential and activity. The regulation of potassium leak from cells through K2P channels is of critical importance to cell function, development and survival. Controlling the cell surface expression of these channels is one mode to regulate their function and is achieved through a balance between regulated channel delivery to and retrieval from the cell surface. Here, we explore the modes of retrieval of K2P channels from the plasma membrane and observe that K2P channels are endocytosed in both a clathrin-mediated and clathrin-independent manner. K2P channels use a variety of pathways and show altered internalisation and sorting in response to external cues. These pathways working in concert, equip the cell with a range of approaches to maintain steady state levels of channels and to respond rapidly should changes in channel density be required.

Abstract
The exocytosis of synaptic vesicles (SVs) elicited by potent stimulation is rapidly compensated by bulk endocytosis of SV membranes leading to large endocytic vacuoles (‘bulk’ endosomes). Subsequently, these vacuoles disappear in parallel with the reappearance of new SVs. We have used synapses of dynamin 1 and 3 double knock-out neurons, where clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is dramatically impaired, to gain insight into the poorly understood mechanisms underlying this process. Massive formation of bulk endosomes was not defective, but rather enhanced, in the absence of dynamin 1 and 3. The subsequent conversion of bulk endosomes into SVs was not accompanied by the accumulation of clathrin coated buds on their surface and this process proceeded even after further clathrin knock-down, suggesting its independence of clathrin. These findings support the existence of a pathway for SV reformation that bypasses the requirement for clathrin and dynamin 1/3 and that operates during intense synaptic activity. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.01621.001 Neurons propagate electrical signals from one cell to the next using small molecules called neurotransmitters. These molecules are held inside small compartments called synaptic vesicles. Once a neuron receives an electrical stimulus, the membranes that enclose the synaptic vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane that encloses the neuron. This releases the neurotransmitters, which then trigger an electrical signal in the neighboring cell. Once the neurotransmitters are released, the vesicle membrane is rapidly reinternalized from the plasma membrane in a process called endocytosis and then recycled, ready for the next round of signal transmission. The process of synaptic vesicle membrane endocytosis and recycling has been studied extensively, and several different mechanisms by which it occurs have been identified. The best understood relies on a protein called clathrin, and is thought to be essential for nervous system function. Recently, however, a mechanism of vesicle membrane endocytosis that does not involve clathrin was identified. This mechanism, called bulk endocytosis, involves reinternalizing large regions of the cell plasma membrane to generate large compartments called vacuoles, from which new synaptic vesicles eventually form. This mechanism has been observed when neurons fire at high frequency. The cellular processes underlying bulk endocytosis are not well understood, although several studies suggest proteins called dynamins are important. Wu et al. simulated the conditions a cell experiences during high levels of activity in neurons that lacked the two major dynamins present at the synapses between neurons—dynamin 1 and dynamin 3. In these neurons, robust bulk endocytosis occurred, suggesting that these two major neuronal dynamins do not play a role in this process. Furthermore, formation of vesicles from the vacuoles generated by bulk endocytosis appeared to be clathrin-independent. These findings point to the occurrence of a pathway of synaptic vesicle recycling that bypasses the need for dynamin 1 and 3 as well as for clathrin. To reconcile these results with previously published work, Wu et al. propose that dynamins may only be required for processes that also require clathrin. But how are vesicles recycled during bulk endocytosis if dynamins are not involved? There are currently few leads to base alternative mechanisms on. Further work is required to unravel this mystery, and to provide insights into how clathrin-dependent and independent recycling processes are linked during high neuronal activity.

Abstract
AD, a devastating neurodegenerative disorder, is the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. Patients with AD are characterized by three hallmarks of neuropathology including neuritic plaque deposition, neurofibrillary tangle formation, and neuronal loss. Growing evidences indicate that dysregulation of regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. Aberrant RCAN1 expression facilitates neuronal apoptosis and Tau hyperphosphorylation, leading to neuronal loss and neurofibrillary tangle formation. This review aims to describe the recent advances of the regulation of RCAN1 expression and its physiological functions. Moreover, the AD risk factors-induced RCAN1 dysregulation and its role in promoting neuronal loss, synaptic impairments and neurofibrillary tangle formation are summarized. Furthermore, we provide an outlook into the effects of RCAN1 dysregulation on APP processing, Aβ generation and neuritic plaque formation, and the possible underlying mechanisms, as well as the potential of targeting RCAN1 as a new therapeutic approach.

Abstract
A large number of studies suggest that calcium triggers and accelerates vesicle endocytosis at many synapses and non-neuronal secretory cells. However, many studies show that prolonging the duration of the stimulation train, which induces more calcium influx, slows down endocytosis; and several studies suggest that instead of triggering endocytosis, calcium actually inhibits endocytosis. Here we addressed this apparent conflict at a large nerve terminal, the calyx of Held in rat brainstem, in which recent studies suggest that transient calcium increase up to tens of micromolar concentration at the micro/nano domain triggers endocytosis. By dialyzing 0-1 μM calcium into the calyx via a whole-cell pipette, we found that slow endocytosis was inhibited by calcium dialysis in a concentration-dependent manner. Thus, prolonged, small, and global calcium increase inhibits endocytosis, whereas transient and large calcium increase at the micro/nano domain triggers endocytosis and facilitates endocytosis. This yin and yang effect of calcium may reconcile apparent conflicts regarding whether calcium accelerates or inhibits endocytosis. Whether endocytosis is fast or slow depends on the net outcome between the yin and yang effect of calcium.

Abstract
Vesicle exocytosis releases content to mediate many biological events, including synaptic transmission essential for brain functions. Following exocytosis, endocytosis is initiated to retrieve exocytosed vesicles within seconds to minutes. Decades of studies in secretory cells reveal three exocytosis modes coupled to three endocytosis modes: (a) full-collapse fusion, in which vesicles collapse into the plasma membrane, followed by classical endocytosis involving membrane invagination and vesicle reformation; (b) kiss-and-run, in which the fusion pore opens and closes; and (c) compound exocytosis, which involves exocytosis of giant vesicles formed via vesicle-vesicle fusion, followed by bulk endocytosis that retrieves giant vesicles. Here we review these exo- and endocytosis modes and their roles in regulating quantal size and synaptic strength, generating synaptic plasticity, maintaining exocytosis, and clearing release sites for vesicle replenishment. Furthermore, we highlight recent progress in understanding how vesicle endocytosis is initiated and is thus coupled to exocytosis. The emerging model is that calcium influx via voltage-dependent calcium channels at the calcium microdomain triggers endocytosis and controls endocytosis rate; calmodulin and synaptotagmin are the calcium sensors; and the exocytosis machinery, including SNARE proteins (synaptobrevin, SNAP25, and syntaxin), is needed to coinitiate endocytosis, likely to control the amount of endocytosis.

Abstract
The splice isoform Drp1-x01 promotes mitochondrial fission and is regulated by Cdk phosphorylation-dependent changes in microtubule association. Fission and fusion reactions determine mitochondrial morphology and function. Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) is a guanosine triphosphate–hydrolyzing mechanoenzyme important for mitochondrial fission and programmed cell death. Drp1 is subject to alternative splicing of three exons with previously unknown functional significance. Here, we report that splice variants including the third but excluding the second alternative exon (x01) localized to and copurified with microtubule bundles as dynamic polymers that resemble fission complexes on mitochondria. A major isoform in immune cells, Drp1-x01 required oligomeric assembly and Arg residues in alternative exon 3 for microtubule targeting. Drp1-x01 stabilized and bundled microtubules and attenuated staurosporine-induced mitochondrial fragmentation and apoptosis. Phosphorylation of a conserved Ser residue adjacent to the microtubule-binding exon released Drp1-x01 from microtubules and promoted mitochondrial fragmentation in a splice form–specific manner. Phosphorylation by Cdk1 contributed to dissociation of Drp1-x01 from mitotic microtubules, whereas Cdk5-mediated phosphorylation modulated Drp1-x01 targeting to interphase microtubules. Thus, alternative splicing generates a latent, cytoskeletal pool of Drp1 that is selectively mobilized by cyclin-dependent kinase signaling.

Abstract
Photoreceptor ribbon synapses are continuously active synapses with large active zones that contain synaptic ribbons. Synaptic ribbons are anchored to the active zones and are associated with large numbers of synaptic vesicles. The base of the ribbon that is located close to L-type voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels is a hotspot of exocytosis. The continuous exocytosis at the ribbon synapse needs to be balanced by compensatory endocytosis. Recent analyses indicated that vesicle recycling at the synaptic ribbon is also an important determinant of synaptic signaling at the photoreceptor synapse. To get insights into mechanisms of vesicle recycling at the photoreceptor ribbon synapse, we performed super-resolution structured illumination microscopy and immunogold electron microscopy to localize major components of the endocytotic membrane retrieval machinery in the photoreceptor synapse of the mouse retina. We found dynamin, syndapin, amphiphysin, and calcineurin, a regulator of activity-dependent endocytosis, to be highly enriched around the active zone and the synaptic ribbon. We present evidence for two clathrin heavy chain variants in the photoreceptor terminal; one is enriched around the synaptic ribbon, whereas the other is localized in the entry region of the terminal. The focal enrichment of endocytic proteins around the synaptic ribbon is consistent with a focal uptake of endocytic markers at that site. This endocytic activity functionally depends on dynamin. These data propose that the presynaptic periactive zone surrounding the synaptic ribbon complex is a hotspot of endocytosis in photoreceptor ribbon synapses.

Abstract
Proper regulation of plasma membrane protein endocytosis by external stimuli is required for cell growth and survival. In yeast, excess levels of certain nutrients induce endocytosis of the cognate permeases to prevent toxic accumulation of metabolites. The α-arrestins, a family of trafficking adaptors, stimulate ubiquitin-dependent and clathrin-mediated endocytosis by interacting with both a client permease and the ubiquitin ligase Rsp5. However, the molecular mechanisms that control α-arrestin function are not well understood. Here, we show that α-arrestin Aly1/Art6 is a phosphoprotein that specifically interacts with and is dephosphorylated by the Ca(2+)- and calmodulin-dependent phosphoprotein phosphatase calcineurin/PP2B. Dephosphorylation of Aly1 by calcineurin at a subset of phospho-sites is required for Aly1-mediated trafficking of the aspartic acid and glutamic acid transporter Dip5 to the vacuole, but it does not alter Rsp5 binding, ubiquitinylation, or stability of Aly1. In addition, dephosphorylation of Aly1 by calcineurin does not regulate the ability of Aly1 to promote the intracellular sorting of the general amino acid permease Gap1. These results suggest that phosphorylation of Aly1 inhibits its vacuolar trafficking function and, conversely, that dephosphorylation of Aly1 by calcineurin serves as a regulatory switch to promote Aly1-mediated trafficking to the vacuole.

Abstract
Activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE) is the dominant mode of synaptic vesicle (SV) endocytosis during high-frequency stimulation in central nerve terminals. ADBE generates endosomes direct from the plasma membrane, meaning that high concentrations of calcium will be present in their interior due to fluid phase uptake from the extracellular space. Morphological and fluorescent assays were used to track the generation of SVs from bulk endosomes in primary neuronal culture. This process was functionally uncoupled from both SV exocytosis and plasma membrane retrieval events by intervening only after SV fusion and endocytosis were completed. Either intracellular (BAPTA-AM) or intra-endosomal (Rhod-dextran) calcium chelation inhibited SV generation from bulk endosomes, indicating that calcium efflux from this compartment is critical for this process. The V-type ATPase antagonist bafilomycin A1 also arrested SV generation from bulk endosomes, indicating endosomal acidification may be required for calcium efflux. Finally, pharmacological inhibition of the calcium-dependent protein phosphatase calcineurin blocked endosomal SV generation, identifying it as a key downstream effector in this process. These results reveal a novel and key role for the fluid phase uptake of extracellular calcium and its subsequent efflux in the SV lifecycle.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine chromaffin cells selectively secrete a variety of transmitter molecules into the circulation as a function of sympathetic activation. Activity-dependent release of transmitter species is controlled through regulation of the secretory fusion pore. Under sympathetic tone, basal synaptic excitation drives chromaffin cells to selectively secrete modest levels of catecholamine through a restricted secretory fusion pore. In contrast, elevated sympathetic activity, experienced under stress, results in fusion pore expansion to evoke maximal catecholamine release and to facilitate release of copackaged peptide transmitters. Therefore, fusion pore expansion is a key control point for the activation of the sympatho-adrenal stress response. Despite the physiological importance of this process, the molecular mechanism by which it is regulated remains unclear. Here we employ fluorescence imaging with electrophysiological and electrochemical-based approaches to investigate the role of dynamin I in the regulation of activity-mediated fusion pore expansion in mouse adrenal chromaffin cells. We show that under elevated stimulation, dynamin I is dephosphorylated at Ser-774 by calcineurin. We also demonstrate that disruption of dynamin I-syndapin binding, an association regulated by calcineurin-dependent dynamin dephosphorylation, limits fusion pore expansion. Last, we show that perturbation of N-WASP function (a syndapin substrate) limits activity-mediated fusion pore expansion. Our results suggest that fusion pore expansion is regulated by a calcineurin-dependent dephosphorylation of dynamin I. Dephosphorylated dynamin I acts via a syndapin/N-WASP signaling cascade to mediate pore expansion.

Abstract
Endocytic recycling of synaptic vesicles after exocytosis is critical for nervous system function. At synapses of cultured neurons that lack the two "neuronal" dynamins, dynamin 1 and 3, smaller excitatory postsynaptic currents are observed due to an impairment of the fission reaction of endocytosis that results in an accumulation of arrested clathrin-coated pits and a greatly reduced synaptic vesicle number. Surprisingly, despite a smaller readily releasable vesicle pool and fewer docked vesicles, a strong facilitation, which correlated with lower vesicle release probability, was observed upon action potential stimulation at such synapses. Furthermore, although network activity in mutant cultures was lower, Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) activity was unexpectedly increased, consistent with the previous report of an enhanced state of synapsin 1 phosphorylation at CaMKII-dependent sites in such neurons. These changes were partially reversed by overnight silencing of synaptic activity with tetrodotoxin, a treatment that allows progression of arrested endocytic pits to synaptic vesicles. Facilitation was also counteracted by CaMKII inhibition. These findings reveal a mechanism aimed at preventing synaptic transmission failure due to vesicle depletion when recycling vesicle traffic is backed up by a defect in dynamin-dependent endocytosis and provide new insight into the coupling between endocytosis and exocytosis.

Abstract
Dynamin, the founding member of a family of dynamin-like proteins (DLPs) implicated in membrane remodelling, has a critical role in endocytic membrane fission events. The use of complementary approaches, including live-cell imaging, cell-free studies, X-ray crystallography and genetic studies in mice, has greatly advanced our understanding of the mechanisms by which dynamin acts, its essential roles in cell physiology and the specific function of different dynamin isoforms. In addition, several connections between dynamin and human disease have also emerged, highlighting specific contributions of this GTPase to the physiology of different tissues.
