It is postulated that CaMKII phosphorylation of GluR1 and NR2A/B may play a role in increasing the presence of these receptors within retinal synapses.
Some types of synaptic plasticity, such as LTP, require activation of the NMDA receptor, postsynaptic Ca 2+ion influx with concomitant activation of CaMKII [ 63].
Thus, enhanced phosphorylation by CaMKII may be involved in the altered levels of NMDA-receptor subunits observed here, but this remains to be tested.
Because GluR1 is a known substrate of CaMKII in vitro and in vivo [ 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40] and because CaMKII expression/activity is up-regulated in the retinae of the rdta mice [ 34], GluR1 phosphorylation might also be increased in the rodless retina.
The Wnt/Ca 2+pathway has been shown to increase intracellular Ca 2+levels in zebrafish embryos [ 4 ] and to activate PKC and CamKII in Xenopus embryos [ 5 6 ] as well as in human melanomas [ 7 ] . Moreover, it may activate Cdc42 [ 8 ] and JNK [ 9 ] . It is important to emphasize that whether Wnts activate distinct responses and likely pathways is context-dependent, and thus in other contexts a given Wnt may activate another pathway.
