EEF1A1 deacetylation enables transcriptional activation of remyelination

Duman, Mert ; Vaquié, Adrien ; Nocera, Gianluigi ; Heller, Manfred ; Stumpe, Michael ; Sankar, Devanarayanan Siva ; Dengjel, Jörn ; Meijer, Dies ; Yamaguchi, Teppei ; Matthias, Patrick ; Zeis, Thomas ; Schaeren-Wiemers, Nicole ; Hayoz, Antoinette ; Ruff, Sophie ; Jacob, Claire

Remyelination of the peripheral and central nervous systems (PNS and CNS, respectively) is a prerequisite for functional recovery after lesion. However, this process is not always optimal and becomes inefficient in the course of multiple sclerosis. Here we show that, when acetylated, eukaryotic elongation factor 1A1 (eEF1A1) negatively regulates PNS and CNS remyelination. Acetylated eEF1A1...

Parvalbumin expression in oligodendrocyte-like CG4 cells causes a reduction in mitochondrial volume, attenuation in reactive oxygen species production and a decrease in cell processes’ length and branching

Lichvarova, Lucia ; Blum, Walter ; Schwaller, Beat ; Szabolcsi, Viktoria

In: Scientific Reports, 2019, vol. 9, no. 1, p. 10603

Forebrain glial cells - ependymal cells and astrocytes -acquire upon injury- a “reactive” phenotype associated with parvalbumin (PV) upregulation. Since free radicals, e.g. reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a role in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis, and that PV-upregulation in glial cells is inversely correlated with the level of oxidative stress, we hypothesized that...

Progressive signaling changes in the olfactory nerve of patients with Alzheimer’s disease

Bathini, Praveen ; Mottas, Antoine ; Jaquet, Muriel ; Brai, Emanuele ; Alberi, Lavinia

In: Neurobiology of Aging, 2019, vol. 76, p. 80–95

Olfaction declines with aging and appears to be a prodromal sign of cognitive decline in progressive neurodegenerative diseases. Nevertheless, very little is known about the pathophysiological changes underlying smell loss that may reflect early network dysfunction. A cross-sectional histoanatomical study was conducted on postmortem olfactory nerves of patients with increasing severity of...

Dynamic Notch signalling regulates neural stem cell state progression in the Drosophila optic lobe

Contreras, Esteban G. ; Egger, Boris ; Gold, Katrina S. ; Brand, Andrea H.

In: Neural Development, 2018, vol. 13, no. 1, p. 25

Neural stem cells generate all of the neurons and glial cells in the central nervous system, both during development and in the adult to maintain homeostasis. In the Drosophila optic lobe, neuroepithelial cells progress through two transient progenitor states, PI and PII, before transforming into neuroblasts. Here we analyse the role of Notch signalling in the transition from neuroepithelial...
