Mutant proteins form intranuclear aggregates, induce cytotoxicity and cause neuronal cell death.
Here, we show that EndoG displays cytotoxic nuclear localization in dopaminergic neurons of human Parkinson-diseased patients, while EndoG depletion largely reduces α-synuclein-induced cell death in human neuroblastoma cells.
During ischemic stroke, malfunction of excitatory amino acid transporters and reduced synaptic clearance causes accumulation of Glutamate (Glu) and excessive stimulation of postsynaptic neurons, which can lead to their degeneration by excitotoxicity.
It remains unclear if Nesprin-1 and 2 regulate other functions in neurons.
In addition, we find that klaroid and klarsicht are required for nuclear migration in differentiating neurons and in non-neural cells.
It is clear to date that the age-induced changes in CNS function observed in invertebrates are conserved in mammalian species and that further work on invertebrates may provide informative insights in to the mechanisms of neuronal ageing.
It is becoming clear that conserved protein complexes, which have been shown to regulate polarity in such diverse systems as the C. elegans zygote and mammalian epithelia, are also required for neuronal polarization.
However, it is still unclear how Aβ and tau aggregates promote specific phenotypic outcomes and lead to excessive oxidative DNA damage, neuronal cell death and eventually to loss of memory.
However, it is unclear whether neuronal hyperactivity is the cause of cognitive impairment or a compensatory mechanism of circuit dysfunction.
Specifically, it is unclear how single neurons influence the processing of sensory information and modulate their responses to environmental changes.
Cytosolic proton ionic increase through inhibition of v-ATPase is sufficient to induce GENTIS nuclear translocation and evoke behavioral quiescence, characterized by reduced feeding and activation of sleep-active neurons.
In conclusion, our findings define a novel conserved signaling cascade coupling injury-induced nuclear export of RNA binding proteins to local regulation and dendrite regeneration, providing new mechanistic insight into neuronal repair.
We show that nuclear localized cyclin D1, an activator of Cdk4/6, is upregulated during kainic acid evoked death of CA3/CA1 neurons and that this upregulation is associated with increased phosphorylation of a critical CDK substrate, pRb.
Using forward genetic screens, we identified the conserved THO nuclear export complex (THOC) as an important regulator of presynapse development in C. elegans dopaminergic neurons.

Our data suggest that the nuclear p53-GAPDH complex is important in regulating glutamate-mediated neuronal death and could serve as a potential therapeutic target for ischemic stroke treatment.
