Herpes Simplex Virus type-1 infection induces synaptic dysfunction in cultured cortical neurons via GSK-3 activation and intraneuronal amyloid-β protein accumulation [PDF]
Increasing evidence suggests that recurrent Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection spreading to the CNS is a risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) but the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated yet.

Axons are directed to their correct targets by guidance cues during neurodevelopment. Many axon guidance cues have been discovered; however, much less known is about how the growth cones transduce the extracellular guidance cues to intracellular ...

Control of neuronal ion channel function by glycogen synthase kinase-3: new prospective for an old kinase [PDF]
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) is an evolutionarily conserved multifaceted ubiquitous enzyme. In the central nervous system (CNS), GSK-3 acts through an intricate network of intracellular signaling pathways culminating in a highly divergent cascade ...

CRMP2 and its phosphorylation prevent axonal misrouting of the corticospinal tract
During the development of the central nervous system (CNS), the formation of neural circuits such as the corticospinal tract (CST) is crucial to control voluntary movement and is regulated by axonal guidance mechanisms. In this study, we examined the role of CRMP2 (Collapsin response mediator protein 2) in the formation of CST.

Evaluation of behavior in transgenic mouse models to understand human congenital pain conditions [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Containing a brain for signal processing and decision making, and a peripheral component for sensation and response, the nervous system provides higher organisms a powerful method of interacting with their environment.

GSK3/CRMP2 signaling confers PTEN knockout mediated axonal regeneration
AbstractKnockout of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN‐/‐) is neuroprotective and promotes axon regeneration in mature neurons. Elevation and maintenance of mTOR activity in injured neurons have been proposed as the main underlying mechanism. Here we demonstrate that PTEN‐/‐ also abrogates the inhibitory activity of GSK3 on collapsin response ...
