Neurotransmitters Drive Combinatorial Multistate Postsynaptic Density Networks [PDF]
The mammalian postsynaptic density (PSD) comprises a complex collection of ~1100 proteins. Despite extensive knowledge of individual proteins, the overall organization of the PSD is poorly understood.

Characterization of A Novel Autoimmune Encephalitis Associated Antibody against CRMP2 [PDF]
ABSTRACTObjectiveAutoimmune encephalitis (AE) is a large category disorder urging antibody characterization. The aim was to identify a novel AE related autoantibody targeting an intracellular synaptic protein.MethodsSuspected AE patients had negative conventional antibodies screening but strong immunolabel signals on rat brain sections with the serum ...

Genomics of lithium action and response [PDF]
Lithium is the most successful mood stabiliser treatment for bipolar disorder. However, unlike conventional drugs that are designed to interact with a specific molecular target, the actions of lithium are distributed across many biological processes and ...

A single structurally conserved SUMOylation site in CRMP2 controls NaV1.7 function [PDF]
The neuronal collapsin response mediator protein 2 (CRMP2) undergoes several posttranslational modifications that codify its functions. Most recently, CRMP2 SUMOylation (addition of small ubiquitin like modifier (SUMO)) was identified as a key regulatory step within a modification program that codes for CRMP2 interaction with, and trafficking of ...

Soluble Alpha-APP (sAPPalpha) Regulates CDK5 Expression and Activity in Neurons [PDF]
A growing body of evidence suggests a role for soluble alpha-amyloid precursor protein (sAPPalpha) in pathomechanisms of Alzheimer disease (AD). This cleavage product of APP was identified to have neurotrophic properties.

CRMP2 Tethers Kainate Receptor Activity to Cytoskeleton Dynamics during Neuronal Maturation [PDF]
The CRMP2 and CRMP4 proteins are strongly expressed in the developing nervous system, mediating neurite outgrowth, neuronal polarity, and axon guidance. In the present study, we demonstrate the interaction of the CRMP2 and CRMP4 proteins with the GluK5 subunit of the kainate (KA) receptor (KAR) and investigated the role of KARs in modulating the ...

PKCγ-Mediated Phosphorylation of CRMP2 Regulates Dendritic Outgrowth in Cerebellar Purkinje Cells [PDF]
AbstractThe signalling protein PKCγ is a major regulator of Purkinje cell development and synaptic function. We have shown previously that increased PKCγ activity impairs dendritic development of cerebellar Purkinje cells. Mutations in the protein kinase Cγ gene (PRKCG) cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 14 (SCA14).

Otsides nõela heinakuhjast – endometrioosi biomarkerid [PDF]
Endometrioosi diagnoosimiseks puuduvad siiani mitteinvasiivsed ja minimaalselt invasiivsed biomarkerid ning haiguse diagnoos põhineb peamiselt laparoskoopilisel operatsioonil ja endometrioosikollete histoloogilisel uuringul.
