Clavet-Fournier V, Lee C, Wegner W, Brose N, Rhee J, Willig K
iScience . 2024 Jan; 27(1):108679. PMID: 38213627
Synapses, specialized contact sites between neurons, are the fundamental elements of neuronal information transfer. Synaptic plasticity involves changes in synaptic morphology and the number of neurotransmitter receptors, and is thought...

Dzyubenko E, Willig K, Yin D, Sardari M, Tokmak E, Labus P, et al.
J Biomed Sci . 2023 Sep; 30(1):76. PMID: 37658339
Background: Stroke remains one of the leading causes of long-term disability worldwide, and the development of effective restorative therapies is hindered by an incomplete understanding of intrinsic brain recovery mechanisms....

Ray A, Christian J, Mosso M, Park E, Wegner W, Willig K, et al.
J Neurosci . 2023 Jan; 43(4):584-600. PMID: 36639912
High-throughput anatomic data can stimulate and constrain new hypotheses about how neural circuits change in response to experience. Here, we use fluorescence-based reagents for presynaptic and postsynaptic labeling to monitor...

Fuhrmann M, Gockel N, Arizono M, Dembitskaya Y, Nagerl U, Pennacchietti F, et al.
J Neurosci . 2022 Nov; 42(45):8488-8497. PMID: 36351828
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy holds tremendous potential for discovery in neuroscience. Much of the molecular machinery and anatomic specializations that give rise to the unique and bewildering electrochemical activity of neurons...

Grimm E, van der Hoeven F, Sardella D, Willig K, Engel U, Veits N, et al.
PLoS One . 2022 Sep; 17(9):e0273660. PMID: 36149863
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is one of the best studied cellular uptake pathways and its contributions to nutrient uptake, receptor signaling, and maintenance of the lipid membrane homeostasis have been already...

Willig K
iScience . 2022 Sep; 25(9):104961. PMID: 36093060
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy has entered most biological laboratories worldwide and its benefit is undisputable. Its application to brain imaging, for example in living mice, enables the study of sub-cellular structural...

Wegner W, Steffens H, Gregor C, Wolf F, Willig K
Elife . 2022 Feb; 11. PMID: 35195066
Synaptic plasticity underlies long-lasting structural and functional changes to brain circuitry and its experience-dependent remodeling can be fundamentally enhanced by environmental enrichment. It is however unknown, whether and how the...

Kuljis D, Micheva K, Ray A, Wegner W, Bowman R, Madison D, et al.
Int J Mol Sci . 2021 Sep; 22(18). PMID: 34576197
Gephyrin has long been thought of as a master regulator for inhibitory synapses, acting as a scaffold to organize γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABARs) at the post-synaptic density. Accordingly,...

Steffens H, Mott A, Li S, Wegner W, Svehla P, Kan V, et al.
Sci Adv . 2021 Jun; 7(24). PMID: 34108204
Excitatory synapses on dendritic spines of pyramidal neurons are considered a central memory locus. To foster both continuous adaption and the storage of long-term information, spines need to be plastic...
