Disruption of axonal transport in neurodegeneration

SH Berth, TE Lloyd - The Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2023 - Am Soc Clin Investig
Neurons are markedly compartmentalized, which makes them reliant on axonal transport to
maintain their health. Axonal transport is important for anterograde delivery of newly …

Axonal transport: Driving synaptic function

P Guedes-Dias, ELF Holzbaur - Science, 2019 - science.org
BACKGROUND Neurons are polarized cells with extreme geometries. Multiple dendrites
and one axon generally emerge from a single cell body and establish synaptic contacts with …

Effects of α-tubulin acetylation on microtubule structure and stability

L Eshun-Wilson, R Zhang, D Portran… - Proceedings of the …, 2019 - National Acad Sciences
Acetylation of K40 in α-tubulin is the sole posttranslational modification to mark the luminal
surface of microtubules. It is still controversial whether its relationship with microtubule …

Microtubules tune mechanosensitive cell responses

Mechanotransduction is a process by which cells sense the mechanical properties of their
surrounding environment and adapt accordingly to perform cellular functions such as …

[HTML][HTML] Axonal transport defects and neurodegeneration: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic implications

W Guo, KS Dittlau, L Van Den Bosch - Seminars in cell & developmental …, 2020 - Elsevier
Because of the extremely polarized morphology, the proper functioning of neurons largely
relies on the efficient cargo transport along the axon. Axonal transport defects have been …

Microtubule dysfunction: a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases

A Sferra, F Nicita, E Bertini - International journal of molecular sciences, 2020 - mdpi.com
Neurons are particularly susceptible to microtubule (MT) defects and deregulation of the MT
cytoskeleton is considered to be a common insult during the pathogenesis of …

Succinyl-CoA ligase deficiency in pro-inflammatory and tissue-invasive T cells
