In contrast, much less is known about how RhoA is regulated by excitatory glutamate receptors. The Rho-GEF Lfc (also known as GEF-H1) is one notable link between RhoA activity and glutamate receptors18. Lfc is inhibited by AMPA receptors; Lfc and RhoA inhibition is implicated in spine maintenance10. RhoA hyperactivity can lead to spine loss and impaired synaptic function.
