Full textNeural crest cells migrate extensively to form the autonomic nervous system including sympathetic, parasympathetic and enteric ganglia essential for regulating bodily homeostasis. In the present work, I explore the migratory mechanisms and neuronal interactions during autonomic circuit assembly, as well as their molecular dependencies. I show that parasympathetic ganglia derive from Schwann cell precursors (SCPs) and migrate along their preganglionic nerves to locate close to their target tissues (Espinosa-Medina et al., 2014). In line with this work, I show that vagal-associated SCPs give rise to part of the oesophageal nervous system, whereas cervical sympathetic-like crest cells colonize all the gastrointestinal tract, demonstrating a dual origin and different migration mechanisms for enteric neurons. Finally, I revise the identity of the sacral autonomic outflow, whose allocation to the parasympathetic nervous system has been accepted for a century. Sacral autonomic neurons control rectal, bladder, and genital functions and analysis of their cellular phenotype was lacking. Here I present a differential molecular signature for cranial parasympathetic versus thoraco-lumbar sympathetic neurons and show that, in this light, the sacral autonomic outflow is sympathetic. Accordingly, the parasympathetic nervous system receives input from cranial nerves exclusively and the sympathetic nervous system from spinal nerves, thoracic to sacral inclusively (Espinosa-Medina et al., 2016). Interestingly the enteric nervous system, which receives input from both sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, shares with each system aspects of its ontogeny

Full textDYRK1A is located in a region of human chromosome 21 (HSA21) that has been associated to the neurodevelopmental impairments shown by individuals with HSA21 aneuploidies. This work shows changes in Dyrk1A gene dosage in the mouse strongly alter the cellularity in inner retina layers and results in severe functional alterations. Moreover, overexpression of Dyrk1A is solely responsible for the retina alterations shown by Ts65Dn mice, a mouse model for Down syndrome. The precise regulation of programmed cell death is critical for the normal development of the nervous system. This work demonstrates that DYRK1A protein kinase is a negative regulator of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway in the developing retina. DYRK1A does not affect the proliferation or specification of retina progenitor cells, but rather regulates the number of cells that die by apoptosis. Caspase-9 is a novel DYRK1A substrate, and the phosphorylation on caspase-9 at threonine residue 125 by DYRK1A protects retina cells from apoptotic cell death. This data suggests a model in which dysregulation of the apoptotic response in differentiating neurons participates in the neuropathology of diseases that display DYRK1A gene dosage imbalance effects.

Full textThe possible existence of NPY/peptide YY (PYY) receptor subtypes was investigated in the rat brain. Overall, the similar autoradiographic distribution of ($ sp{125}$I) BH-NPY and ($ sp{125}$I) PYY in most areas suggests that these two receptor probes most likely interact with the same population of NPY/PYY receptor sites. ($ sp{125}$I) PYY may recognize both a high and low affinity state/subtype of NPY/PYY receptors while ($ sp{125}$I) BH-NPY recognize a single affinity state of receptor having the binding characteristics of the low affinity ($ sp{125}$I) PYY receptor state/subtype. The exact nature of this high affinity receptor state/subtype remains to be established.
Finally, the structural requirements of NPY receptors in central (CNS) and peripheral (PNS) nervous systems were also examined with a binding assay on rat brain membrane preparation and with the rat vas deferens bioassay preparation. The amino acid residues responsible for the activation of NPY receptors in the rat vas deferens preparation lie in the C-terminal half of the NPY molecule as revealed by the loss of potency, but not of biological activity with C-terminal fragments up to NPY$ sb{18-36}$. The N-terminal portion of the NPY molecule appears to be mostly important to insure adequate affinity for central and peripheral NPY receptors. Moreover, a series of NPY analogs revealed that the two tyrosine residues in position 20 and 21 are not directly involved in NPY receptor activation in this bioassay preparation, although they appear relatively important for the maintenance of adequate affinity for the receptors. Interestingly, modifications of the tyrosine residue in position 20 led to the development of two analogs demonstrating a certain degree of selectivity for the PNS receptors while other modifications of tyrosine residues in position 21 may provide some selectivity for CNS receptor sites.

Full textWe aimed to study the quantitative and temporal pattern of muscle innervation extensor digitorum longus (EDL), following transection of the sciatic nerve in mice and immediate repair technique for tubing. Thus, the EDL muscle denervation presented in the second week after the tubing. All of the EDL muscle fibers were reinnervated in the sixth week after the implantation of prosthetic tube. Between the sixth and FORTY weeks post-implantation, the proportion of muscle fibers of the EDL with mono-and poly-innervation increased from 3:1 to 4:1. The forty weeks after the implantation of the tube was reached maximum percentage (80%) of trunk innervation of motor endplates of the EDL mono-innervated. Even with prolonged survival times after implantation, there was no stabilization of the pattern of origin of nerve fibers that converged on the plates of poly-innervated EDL. The mono-innervation trunk was regained by 65% of EDL muscle fibers of animals tubularized, pattern found in 100% of EDL muscle fibers of animals not operated. The morphometric patterns of reinnervation of the EDL muscle were identical, from the third month, the group of animals with tubing and resources section of the sciatic nerve and the group with simple nerve crush, showing similar pattern of muscle reinnervation in the long term.
