While STP is highly diversified across synapse types, the computational and behavioral relevance of this diversity remains unclear. In the Drosophila brain, at nanoscale level, we can distinguish distinct coupling distances between Ca 2+ channels and the (m)unc13 family priming factors, Unc13A and Unc13B. Importantly, coupling distance defines release components with distinct STP characteristics. Here, we show that while Unc13A and Unc13B both contribute to synaptic signalling, they play distinct roles in neural decoding of olfactory information at excitatory projection neuron (ePN) output synapses. Unc13A clusters closer to Ca 2+ channels than Unc13B, specifically promoting fast phasic signal transfer. Reduction of Unc13A in ePNs attenuates responses to both aversive and appetitive stimuli, while reduction of Unc13B provokes a general shift towards appetitive values. Collectively, we provide direct genetic evidence that release components of distinct nanoscopic coupling distances differentially control STP to play distinct roles in neural decoding of sensory information."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1038/s41467-021-22180-6"],["dc.identifier.pmid","33771998"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/84997"],["dc.identifier.url","https://for2705.de/literature/publications/38"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-425"],["dc.relation","FOR 2705: Dissection of a Brain Circuit: Structure, Plasticity and Behavioral Function of the Drosophila Mushroom Body"],["dc.relation","FOR 2705 | TP 5: Postsynaptic receptor plasticity and transsynaptic communication in storage of memory components in the mushroom bodies"],["dc.relation.eissn","2041-1723"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Fiala"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Sigrist (Genetics)"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.title","Unc13A and Unc13B contribute to the decoding of distinct sensory information in Drosophila"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The efficacy of forming new memories declines with advancing age, but the synaptic changes underlying age-induced memory impairment remain poorly understood. Recently, we found spermidine feeding to specifically suppress age-dependent impairments in forming olfactory memories, providing a mean to search for synaptic changes involved in age-dependent memory impairment. Here, we show that a specific synaptic compartment, the presynaptic active zone (AZ), increases the size of its ultrastructural elaboration and releases significantly more synaptic vesicles with advancing age. These age-induced AZ changes, however, were fully suppressed by spermidine feeding. A genetically enforced enlargement of AZ scaffolds (four gene-copies of BRP) impaired memory formation in young animals. Thus, in the Drosophila nervous system, aging AZs seem to steer towards the upper limit of their operational range, limiting synaptic plasticity and contributing to impairment of memory formation. Spermidine feeding suppresses age-dependent memory impairment by counteracting these age-dependent changes directly at the synapse."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1371/journal.pbio.1002563"],["dc.identifier.isi","000386128900019"],["dc.identifier.pmid","27684064"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/13761"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/39590"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Public Library Science"],["dc.relation.issn","1545-7885"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Spermidine Suppresses Age-Associated Memory Impairment by Preventing Adverse Increase of Presynaptic Active Zone Size and Release"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
