Ndel1 Promotes Axon Regeneration via Intermediate Filaments
Failure of axons to regenerate following acute or chronic neuronal injury is attributed to both the inhibitory glial environment and deficient intrinsic ability to re-grow. However, the underlying mechanisms of the latter remain unclear. In this study, we have investigated the role of the mammalian homologue of aspergillus nidulans NudE, Ndel1, emergently viewed as an integrator of the cytoskel...
متن کاملIntermediate filaments
Intermediate filaments form a class of insoluble cytoplasmic filaments ofdimensions intermediate in size between those of microtubules (about 25 nm in diameter) and microfilaments (about 7 nm in diameter). Thus, they are generally known as intermediate-sized filaments (IF)' or 10-nm filaments. They have been identified in virtually all differentiated types ofcells and it seems possible that IF-...
متن کاملInactivation of Rho signaling pathway promotes CNS axon regeneration.
Regeneration in the CNS is blocked by many different growth inhibitory proteins. To foster regeneration, we have investigated a strategy to block the neuronal response to growth inhibitory signals. Here, we report that injured axons regrow directly on complex inhibitory substrates when Rho GTPase is inactivated. Treatment of PC12 cells with C3 enzyme to inactivate Rho and transfection with domi...
متن کاملB-RAF kinase drives developmental axon growth and promotes axon regeneration in the injured mature CNS
Activation of intrinsic growth programs that promote developmental axon growth may also facilitate axon regeneration in injured adult neurons. Here, we demonstrate that conditional activation of B-RAF kinase alone in mouse embryonic neurons is sufficient to drive the growth of long-range peripheral sensory axon projections in vivo in the absence of upstream neurotrophin signaling. We further sh...
متن کاملKindlin-1 enhances axon growth on inhibitory chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans and promotes sensory axon regeneration.
Growing and regenerating axons need to interact with the molecules in the extracellular matrix as they traverse through their environment. An important group of receptors that serve this function is the integrin superfamily of cell surface receptors, which are evolutionarily conserved αβ heterodimeric transmembrane proteins. The function of integrins is controlled by regulating the affinity for...
