Glia as primary drivers of neuropathology in TDP-43 proteinopathies.
A long-standing mystery has been understanding why neurons die in devastating neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Abnormal intracellular protein aggregates are a hallmark feature of many neurodegenerative conditions. Based on this fundamental observation, numerous studies have attempted to shed light on the causal...
متن کاملCaenorhabditis elegans glia modulate neuronal activity and behavior
Glial cells of Caenorhabditis elegans can modulate neuronal activity and behavior, which is the focus of this review. Initially, we provide an overview of neuroglial evolution, making a comparison between C. elegans glia and their genealogical counterparts. What follows is a brief discussion on C. elegans glia characteristics in terms of their exact numbers, germ layers origin, their necessity ...
متن کاملAbnormal neuronal activity in Tourette syndrome and its
27 Tourette syndrome (TS) is a common childhood-onset disorder characterized by motor and vocal 28 tics that are typically accompanied by a multitude of comorbid symptoms. Pharmacological 29 treatment options are limited, which has led to the exploration of deep brain stimulation (DBS) 30 as a possible treatment for severe cases. Multiple lines of evidence have linked TS with 31 abnormalities i...
متن کاملA glia-derived signal regulating neuronal differentiation.
Astrocytes are present in large numbers in the nervous system, are associated with synapses, and propagate ionic signals. Astrocytes influence neuronal physiology by responding to and releasing neurotransmitters, but the mechanisms that establish the close interaction between these cells are not defined. Here we use hippocampal neurons in culture to demonstrate that vasoactive intestinal polype...
متن کاملRole of glia in the regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuronal activity and secretion.
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons are the final common pathway for the central control of reproduction. The coordinated and timely activation of these hypothalamic neurons, which determines sexual development and adult reproductive function, lies under the tight control of a complex array of excitatory and inhibitory transsynaptic inputs. In addition, research conducted over the pas...
