(Soc Neuroscience, 2016)Physiological levels of ROS support neurite outgrowth and axonal specification, but the mechanisms by which ROS are able to shape neurons remain unknown. Ca2+, a broad intracellular second messenger, promotes both Rac1 ...
-
(2012)This essay attempts to capture the spirit of our recent meeting in Chile entitled "Emerging Concepts in Neuronal Cytoskeleton." The purpose of the meeting was to bring together scientists from South American countries with ...
-
(International Society for Neurochemistry, 2013-07)endritic spines are small protrusions emerging from their parent dendrites, and their morphological changes are involved in synaptic plasticity. These tiny structures are composed of thousands of different proteins belonging ...
-
(Elsevier, 2022)The gut microbiota influence neurodevelopment, modulate behavior, and contribute to neurodegenerative disorders. Several studies have consistently reported a greater abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila in Parkinson disease ...
-
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2006-10-30)A number of psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, are characterized by abnormalities in the neuronal cytoskeleton. Here, we find that the enhancement in actin polymerization induced ...
-
Binding of microtubule-associated protein 1B to LIS1 affects the interaction between dynein and LIS1 (PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2005-07-15)For neuronal migration to occur, the cell must undergo morphological changes that require modifications of the cytoskeleton. Several different MAPs (microtubule-associated proteins) or actin-binding proteins are proposed ...
-
(Elsevier, 2013)Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a proline-directed serine/threonine kinase predominantly active in the nervous system where it regulates several processes such as neuronal migration, cytoskeletal dynamics, axonal ...
-
(PLoS ONE, 2013)The Ca2+-activated Cl2 channel is considered a key constituent of odor transduction. Odorant binding to a specific receptor in the cilia of olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) triggers a cAMP cascade that mediates the opening ...
-
(Birkhauser Verlag AG, 2017)© 2016, Springer International Publishing. CDK5 is a serine/threonine kinase that is involved in the normal function of the adult brain and plays a role in neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity. However, its over-regulation ...
-
(2013)Rap1 signaling is important for migration, differentiation, axonal growth, and during neuronal polarity. Rap1 can be activated by external stimuli, which in turn regulates specific guanine nucleotide exchange factors such ...
-
(Wiley & Sons, 2015)
-
(Company of Biologists Ltd., 2015)Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the NADPH oxidase (NOX) complex play important physiological and pathological roles in neurotransmission and neurodegeneration, respectively. However, the contribution of ROS to ...
-
(Wiley, 2021)Across Latin American and Caribbean countries (LACs), the fight against dementia faces pressing challenges, such as heterogeneity, diversity, political instability, and socioeconomic disparities. These can be addressed ...
-
(Universisdad de Chile, 2013)El estrés prenatal es un factor de riesgo en el desarrollo de condiciones neuropsiquiatricas como la depresión y la esquizofrenia. Mas aun, estos efectos pueden perdurar hasta la adultez causado predisposición a adquirir ...
-
(Amer Soc Cell Biology, 2015)ABSTRACT Kinesin-5 is a slow homotetrameric motor protein best known for its essential role in the mitotic spindle, where it limits the rate at which faster motors can move microtubules. In neurons, experimental suppression ...
-
(Soc. Neuroscience, 2015)Acquisition of neuronal polarity is a complex process involving cellular and molecular events. The second messenger cAMP is involved in axonal specification through activation of protein kinase A. However, an alternative ...
-
Identity of the Purkinje cell cytoplasmic antibody type 2 autoantibody antigen is finally revealed (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2017)
-
(2013)Inflammation and iron accumulation are present in a variety of neurodegenerative diseases that include Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. The study of the putative association between inflammation and iron ...
-
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2004-04-15)Inflammation is a process that has been actively related with the onset of several neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer disease (AD). However, the precise implications of inflammatory response for neurodegeneration ...
