(F) Representative images showing the colocalization of Rab4 and GluA2 and quantification of Manders’ colocalization coefficient for Rab4 and GluA2 in WT and SynDIG4 KO neurons. Data are presented as mean ± SEM, with statistical significance determined using unpaired t-test; n = ∼40 dendrite stretches, 2–3 dendritic stretches were cropped from individual neuron images; **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ns, not significant. Three biological replicates (independent cultures, each from a different litter with paired WT and KO littermates) were performed for each group, and representative results shown are from one of these replicates. Scale bar, 5 µm.

Figure Legend Snippet: Model for the role of SynDIG4 in AMPAR distribution via endosomal recycling mechanism. In WT neurons, SynDIG4 (SD4) facilitates the trafficking of AMPARs between Rab4-positive and Rab11-positive endosomes under baseline conditions. In SynDIG4 KO neurons, the recycling of GluA1-containing AMPARs is reduced, and Rab11-positive endosomes fail to undergo fission from Rab4-positive endosomes. Consequently, the levels of intracellular AMPARs are increased, impairing the Rab4-Rab11-dependent recycling process. This SD4-mediated mechanism is crucial for the synaptic distribution of surface AMPARs. Created in BioRender. He, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/k52o982 .
