Age-dependent redistribution and hypersialylation of the central myelin paranodal loop membrane protein Opalin in the mouse brain.
Opalin/Tmem10 is a myelin-associated sialylglycoprotein that is specific to only the mammalian central nervous system. However, little is known about the properties or function of this protein. Here, we analyzed the expression and glycosylation patterns of Opalin in the postnatal mouse brain. Immunolocalization patterns of Opalin were similar to those of myelin basic protein in juvenile and ado...
متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
متن کاملPhotoaffinity labelling of central-nervous-system myelin
1. Endogenous cyclic AMP-stimulated phosphorylation of a 49700-Mr Wolfgram protein component in rabbit central nervous system was investigated by using photoaffinity labelling and 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase activity staining after electroblotting on to nitrocellulose paper. 2. Photoaffinity labelling with 8'azidoadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate showed a cyclic AMP-binding ...
متن کاملConcentration of neddylation-related molecules in paranodal myelin of the peripheral nervous system
Neddylation is a reversible post-translational modification in which a small ubiquitin-like molecule called NEDD8 covalently binds to substrate proteins. Although a recent study suggests that neddylation is essential for formation and maintenance of dendritic spines in the brain, the role of this protein modification in the peripheral nerves is wholly unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that...
متن کاملHYPERVITAMINOSIS A-INDUCED CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEFECTS
In this investigation the effects of excess vitamin A administration during the early embryonic period were studied. Intramuscular injection of a single dose of 15000,20000 or 25000 IU/kg vitamin A to pregnant Balb/c strain mice on either day 7,8,9 or 10 of gestation (vaginal plug= day 0 of gestation) produced major malformations in the central nervous system (CNS) including exencephaly, h...
