The establishment of memory requires coordinated signaling between
presynaptic and postsynaptic terminals in the CNS. The integrins make up a
large family of cell adhesion receptors that are known to mediate
bidirectional signaling between cells or between cells and their external
environment. We show here that many different integrins, including 3
and 5, are expressed broadly in the adult mouse brain and are
associated with synapses. Mice with genetically reduced expression of 3
integrin fail to maintain long-term potentiation (LTP) generated in
hippocampal CA1 neurons. Mice with reduced expression of the 3 and
5 integrins exhibit a defect in paired-pulse facilitation. Mice with
reduced expression of 3, 5, and 8 are defective in
hippocampal LTP and spatial memory in the water maze but have normal fear
conditioning. These results demonstrate that several different integrins are
involved in physiological plasticity and provide the first evidence of their
requirement for behavioral plasticity in vertebrates.
