Phosphorylation of Spinophilin Modulates Its Interaction with Actin Filaments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Spinophilin is a protein phosphatase 1 (PP1)- and actin-binding protein that modulates excitatory synaptic transmission and dendritic spine morphology. We report that spinophilin is phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase A (PKA).

Deciphering SCN2A: A comprehensive review of rodent models of Scn2a dysfunction

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract SCN2A encodes for the alpha subunit of the voltage‐gated sodium channel NaV1.2, which is involved in action potential initiation and backpropagation in excitatory neurons. Currently, it is one of the highest monogenetic risk factors for both epilepsy and autism spectrum disorder.

A signal transduction blind spot: the function of adenylyl cyclase transmembrane domains

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Transmembrane adenylyl cyclases (tmACs) are essential for synthesising the universal second messenger cyclic AMP. All tmACs share a common topology that includes a large 12‐helix transmembrane (TM) domain. This domain accounts for ~ 35% of the coding sequence but its function is still an open question.

Neocortical neurogenesis: a proneural gene perspective

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The neocortex is a mammalian‐specific brain region responsible for higher‐order cognitive functioning that shares fundamental similarities across species, but which is larger and more complex in humans. Proneural genes, encoding basic helix–loop–helix transcription factors (TFs), are evolutionarily conserved drivers of neurogenesis from fly to human ...

Comparative analysis of androgen and estrogen receptor mRNA expression in adult mouse hippocampus

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract In hippocampus, androgens and estrogens influence neuronal plasticity via a range of nuclear or membrane‐bound receptors. While much work has focused on determining their functions, a certain vagueness about the cellular expression of established receptors has remained.

Chronic silencing of subsets of cortical layer 5 pyramidal neurons has a long‐term influence on the laminar distribution of parvalbumin interneurons and the perineuronal nets

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 479-504, April 2025.
Chronic silencing of subsets of layer 5 projection neurons has distinct effects on the laminar distribution of PV interneurons and the perineuronal nets in the adult primary motor and somatosensory cortex. Abstract Neural networks are established throughout cortical development, which require the right ratios of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons ...
