Genetic inactivation of mTORC1 or mTORC2 in neurons reveals distinct functions in glutamatergic synaptic transmission
2020
eLife
Although mTOR signaling is known as a broad regulator of cell growth and proliferation, in neurons it regulates synaptic transmission, which is thought to be a major mechanism through which altered mTOR ...
Inactivation of either complex reduced neuron growth and evoked EPSCs (eEPSCs), however, the effects of mTORC1 on eEPSCs were postsynaptic and the effects of mTORC2 were presynaptic. ...
Summary: mTOR kinase signaling is important for neuronal growth regulation and neuronal network integrity, as demonstrated by neurological disorders associated with disruption in proper mTOR signaling. ...

pre-print
It supports users at each step of the modeling process, including execution of large scale parallel models on supercomputers. SimTracker is suitable for users with a range of modeling experience. ...
However, as network models grow in complexity and scale, the necessary tasks of development and organization become unwieldy. ...
This growth makes more difficult the tasks associated with model development and organization of results. ...

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience
In this review, we first present a brief overview of light sheet illumination and previous super-resolution techniques used for imaging of neurons and synapses. ...
The function of the neuronal synapse depends on the dynamics and interactions of individual molecules at the nanoscale. ...
More recently, a Bessel light sheet together with astigmatism was used to obtain 3D super-resolved reconstructions of microtubule networks in the primary neurons of rat pups for large FOVs (Lu et al., ...

Nerve growth factor scales endocannabinoid signaling by regulating monoacylglycerol lipase turnover in developing cholinergic neurons
2013
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Endocannabinoid, particularly 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG), signaling has recently emerged as a molecular determinant of neuronal migration and synapse formation during cortical development. ...
By taking advantage of BRCA1's cisplatin sensitivity (15), we rescued MGL in cholinergic growth cones, introducing a "stop" signal for NGF-induced growth responses. ...
Conclusions The contribution of endocannabinoid signaling to the formation of neuronal networks in the developing forebrain is increasingly appreciated (2, 4, 16) . ...

Brain aging-dependent glioma traits reversible by NAD+/BDNF-mediated neuronal reactivation
[article]
2020
bioRxiv
pre-print
We find that glioblastoma in older patients and older mice displayed reduced neuronal signaling, including a decline of NTRK-like family member 6 (SLITRK6), a receptor for neurotrophic factor BDNF. ...
This reduction was linked to the systemic decline of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) with aging, as old mice exposed to young blood via parabiosis or supplemented with the NAD+ precursor NMN ( ...
