Nervous system development relies on the generation of neurons, their differentiation and establishment of synaptic connections. These events exhibit remarkable plasticity and are regulated by many developmental cues. Here, we review the mechanisms of three classes of these cues: morphogenetic proteins, electrical activity, and the environment. We focus on second messenger dynamics and their role as integrators of the action of diverse cues, enabling plasticity in the process of neural development.
神经系统的发育依赖于神经元的生成、分化以及突触连接的建立。这些过程具有显著的可塑性,并受到多种发育信号的调控。在此,我们综述三类此类信号的作用机制:形态发生蛋白、电活动和环境因素。我们着重探讨第二信使动力学及其作为多种信号作用整合者的角色,这使得神经发育过程具有可塑性。
