Arc1 protein is released from motorneurons in extracellular vesicles that mediate the transfer of Arc1 mRNA into muscle cells, where Arc1 mRNA can undergo activity-dependent translation (PubMed:29328915). Intercellular transfer od Arc1 mRNA is required for synaptic plasticity at the neuromuscular junction (PubMed:29328915). May play a role in energy balance: required for regulation of body fat by a specific population of brain neurons, named E347, that are necessary and sufficient for proper body fat storage (PubMed:26209258).
