Subtle white matter abnormalities have emerged as a hallmark of brain alterations in magnetic resonance imaging or upon autopsy mentally ill subjects. However, it is unknown whether such reduction and myelin contributes to any disease‐relevant phenotype simply constitutes an epiphenomenon, possibly even treatment‐related. Here, we re‐analyzed Mbp heterozygous mice, the unaffected parental strain shiverer , classical neurological mutant. Between 2 20 months age, +/‐ versus +/+ littermates...
Abstract The cerebellar cortex is involved in the control of diverse motor and non-motor functions. Its principal circuit elements are Purkinje cells that integrate incoming excitatory local inhibitory inputs provide sole output cortex. However, transcriptional assembly not well understood. Here, we show NeuroD2, a neuronal basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor, promotes postnatal survival both granule molecular layer interneurons (basket stellate cells). while NeuroD2 essential...
Nedd4-2 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase in which missense mutation related to familial epilepsy, indicating its critical role regulating neuronal network activity. However, substrates involved function have yet be identified. Using mouse lines lacking Nedd4-1 and Nedd4-2, we identified astrocytic channel proteins inwardly rectifying K+ 4.1 (Kir4.1) Connexin43 as substrates. We found that the expression of Kir4.1 increased upon conditional deletion astrocytes, leading elevation membrane ion...
Oligodendrocytes make myelin for rapid impulse propagation and contribute to the long‐term survival of myelinated axons. The mechanisms by which oligodendroglial dysfunction(s) slowly progressive neurodegeneration are not well understood. Here, we demonstrate in Cnp1 mutant mice that secondary axonal degeneration subcortical white matter is associated with an age‐dependent activation both, innate adaptive immune responses, including expansion infiltrating CD8+ T cells. While detrimental role...
