The cAMP Inducers Modify N-Acetylaspartate Metabolism in Wistar Rat Brain
Antioxidants, 2021 Neuronal N-acetylaspartate production appears in the presence of aspartate N-acetyltransferase (NAT8L) and binds acetyl groups from acetyl-CoA with aspartic acid.

GDE6 promotes progenitor identity in the vertebrate neural tube
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 The generation of neurons in the central nervous system is a complex, stepwise process necessitating the coordinated activity of mitotic progenitors known as radial glia. Following neural tube closure, radial glia undergo a period of active proliferation

MicroRNA-5195-3p alleviates high glucose‑induced injury in human ARPE-19 cells by targeting GMFB.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Hyperglycemia is generally considered to be an important cause of diabetic retinopathy (DR). The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of miR-5195-3p in high glucose (HG)-induced human retinal pigment epithelial ARPE-19 cell injury.

Dopaminergic Toxin 1-Methyl-4-Phenylpyridinium, Proteins α-Synuclein and Glia Maturation Factor Activate Mast Cells and Release Inflammatory Mediators. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the presence of Lewy bodies and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons. 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), a metabolite of neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) and Lewy body component ...

Glia maturation factor-γ mediates neutrophil chemotaxis [PDF]
Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2011 ABSTRACTChemotaxis is fundamental to the directional migration of neutrophils toward endogenous and exogenous chemoattractants. Recent studies have demonstrated that ADF/cofilin superfamily members play important roles in reorganizing the actin cytoskeleton by disassembling actin filaments.

Glia maturation factor gamma regulates the migration and adherence of human T lymphocytes
BMC Immunology, 2012 Background Lymphocyte migration and chemotaxis are essential for effective immune surveillance. A critical aspect of migration is cell polarization and the extension of pseudopodia in the direction of movement.

Glutamate-dependent ectodomain shedding of neuregulin-1 type II precursors in rat forebrain neurons. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The neurotrophic factor neuregulin 1 (NRG1) regulates neuronal development, glial differentiation, and excitatory synapse maturation. NRG1 is synthesized as a membrane-anchored precursor and is then liberated by proteolytic processing or exocytosis ...

Antiproliferative function of glia maturation factor beta. [PDF]
Cell Regulation, 1990 Recombinant human glia maturation factor beta (GMF-beta) reversibly inhibits the proliferation of neoplastic cells in culture by arresting the cells in the G0/G1 phase. This phenomenon is not target-cell specific, as neural and nonneural cells are equally inhibited.
