Regulation of dendritic spine growth through activity-dependent recruitment of the brain-enriched Na+/H+ exchanger NHE5
pH homeostasis in neurons plays crucial roles in normal synaptic functions. It is found that the Na+/H+ exchanger NHE5 is targeted to the synapse on neuronal activation, regulates the synaptic pH, and controls the morphology of dendritic spines
