چکیده

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), including the nuclear envelope, is a continuous and intricate membrane-bound organelle responsible for various cellular functions. In neurons, the ER network is found in cell bodies, axons, and dendrites. Recent studies indicate the involvement of the ER network in neuronal development, such as neuronal migration and axonal outgrowth. However, the regulation of neural development by ER-localized proteins is not fully understood. We previously reported that the multi-transmembrane protein Dpy19L1 is required for neuronal migration in the developing mouse cerebral cortex. A Dpy19L family member, Dpy19L2, which is a causative gene for human Globozoospermia, is suggested to act as an anchor of the acrosome to the nuclear envelope. In this study, we found that the patterns of exogenous Dpy19L1 were partially coincident with the ER, including the nuclear envelope in COS-7 cells at the level of the light microscope. The reticular distribution of Dpy19L1 was disrupted by microtubule depolymerization that induces retraction of the ER. Furthermore, Dpy19L1 showed a similar distribution pattern with a ER marker protein in embryonic mouse cortical neurons. Finally, we showed that Dpy19L1 knockdown mediated by siRNA resulted in decreased neurite outgrowth in cultured neurons. These results indicate that transmembrane protein Dpy19L1 is localized to the ER membrane and regulates neurite extension during development.

Stargazin-related protein γ₇ is associated with signalling endosomes in superior cervical ganglion neurons and modulates neurite outgrowth.

The role(s) of the newly discovered stargazin-like γ-subunit proteins remains unclear; although they are now widely accepted to be transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory proteins (TARPs), rather than Ca²⁺ channel subunits, it is possible that they have more general roles in trafficking within neurons. We previously found that γ₇ subunit is associated with vesicles when it is expressed in neuron...

Have you seen? A grab to move on: ER–endosome contacts in membrane protrusion formation and neurite outgrowth

A key feature of many eukaryotic cells, most prominently seen in developing neurons, is their ability to form and extend membrane protrusions. How protrusion formation is linked to exocytic membrane trafficking is largely unclear. In a recent paper published in Nature, Raiborg et al identify a crucial role in this process for dynamic membrane contact sites (MCSs) between the ER and endosomes. T...

c-Fos activated phospholipid synthesis is required for neurite elongation in differentiating PC12 cells.

We have previously shown that c-Fos activates phospholipid synthesis through a mechanism independent of its genomic AP-1 activity. Herein, using PC12 cells induced to differentiate by nerve growth factor, the genomic effect of c-Fos in initiating neurite outgrowth is shown as distinct from its nongenomic effect of activating phospholipid synthesis and sustaining neurite elongation. Blocking c-F...
