Gliotransmission by Prostaglandin E2: a prerequisite for GnRH neuronal function?

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2011
Over the past four decades it has become clear that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a phospholipid-derived signaling molecule, plays a fundamental role in modulating the GnRH neuroendocrine system and in shaping the hypothalamus.

Research progress of the netrins and their receptors in cancer

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 8, April 2024.
Abstract Netrins, a family of secreted and membrane‐associated proteins, can regulate axonal guidance, morphogenesis, angiogenesis, cell migration, cell survival, and tumorigenesis. Four secreted netrins (netrin 1, 3, 4 and 5) and two glycosylphosphatidylinositols‐anchored membrane proteins, netrin‐G1 and G2, have been identified in mammals.

Structural diversity of neuronal calcium sensor proteins and insights for activation of retinal guanylyl cyclase by GCAP1. [PDF]

, 2014
Neuronal calcium sensor (NCS) proteins, a sub-branch of the calmodulin superfamily, are expressed in the brain and retina where they transduce calcium signals and are genetically linked to degenerative diseases.

Differential Maturation of the Two Regulated Secretory Pathways in Human iPSC-Derived Neurons

Stem Cell Reports, 2017
Neurons communicate by regulated secretion of chemical signals from synaptic vesicles (SVs) and dense-core vesicles (DCVs). Here, we investigated the maturation of these two secretory pathways in micro-networks of human iPSC-derived neurons.

Neurohormonal modulation of the Limulus heart: amine actions on neuromuscular transmission and cardiac muscle [PDF]

, 1985
The responses of Limulus cardiac neuromuscular junctions and cardiac muscle cells to four endogenous amines were determined in order to identify the cellular targets underlying amine modulation of heartbeat amplitude.

Altered Interaction and Expression of Proteins Involved in Neurosecretion in Scrapie-infected GT1-1 Cells*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Prions cause transmissible and fatal diseases that are associated with spongiform degeneration, astrogliosis, and loss of axon terminals in the brains. To determine the expression of proteins involved in neurosecretion and synaptic functions after prion ...

Estrogen-Astrocyte interactions: Implications for neuroprotection

BMC Neuroscience, 2002
Background Recent work has suggested that the ovarian steroid 17β-estradiol, at physiological concentrations, may exert protective effects in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and acute ischemic stroke.
