Abstract SARM1 (sterile α and HEAT/armadillo motifs containing protein) is a member of the MyD88 (myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88) family which mediates innate immune responses. Because inactivation of SARM1 prevents various forms of axonal degeneration, we tested whether it might protect against prion-induced neurotoxicity. Instead, we found that SARM1 deficiency exacerbates the progression of prion pathogenesis.

  • Primary Traumatic Axonopathy in Mice Subjected to Impact Acceleration: a Reappraisal of Pathology and Mechanisms with High-Resolution Anatomical Methods

Here, wegeneratedTAIwithimpactaccelerationoftheheadinmaleThy1-eYFP-Htransgenicmiceinwhichspecificpopulationsofneuronsand their axons are labeled with yellow fluorescent protein. This model results in axonal lesions in multiple axonal tracts along with blood– brain barrier disruption and neuroinflammation. The corticospinal tract, a prototypical long tract, is severely affected and is the focus of this study. Using optimized CLARITY at single-axon resolution, we visualized the entire corticospinal tract volume from the pons to the cervical spinal cord in 3D and counted the total number of axonal lesions and their progression over time. Our results divulged the presence of progressive traumatic axonopathy that was maximal at the pyramidal decussation. The perikarya of injured corticospinal neurons atrophied, but there was no evidence of neuronal cell death. We also used CLARITY at single-axon resolution to explore the role of the NMNAT2-SARM1 axonal self-destruction pathway in traumatic axonopathy. When we interfered with this pathway by genetically ablating SARM1 or by pharmacological strategies designed to increase levels of Nicotinamide (Nam), a feedback inhibitor of SARM1, we found a significant reduction in the number of axonal lesions early after injury.

Anja Horn-Bochtler Tag der Einreichung: 17.11.2019 Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 18.03.2020 Abstract The peripheral nerves that communicate skin, muscle and sensory organs with the brain must maintain functionality throughout life despite frequent stress and injury. Loss of integrity of peripheral neurons and associated glial cells is a common occurrence in severe neurological dysfunctions that include weakness, pain and loss of sensation. Therefore, protecting the nervous system from chronic effects of physical and chemical stress is a pressing clinical challenge. This has sparked intense efforts to exploit molecular inhibitors of axonal and glial destruction. Loss of function of the obligate pro-degenerative protein Sarm1 blocks axon degeneration across species. Thus, Sarm1 is an ideal target for clinical application aimed at reducing axonal degradation in humans. In my thesis, I addressed the impact of Sarm1 deficiency on the development of the peripheral nervous system and glial Schwann cells. Using zebrafish, I show that elimination of Sarm1 is compatible with neural homeostasis, and is glioprotective against chemotherapeutic agents after nerve injury. Specifically, I have discovered that Schwann cells are not essential for the maintenance of severed axons lacking Sarm1, which subsist well beyond the normal timeframe allowed by Sarm1 destructive activity.

Notably, loss of mitochondrial potential precedes cellular demise in several programmed cell destruction pathways, including axons undergoing Wallerian degeneration. Here, we demonstrate that mitochondrial depolarization triggers axon degeneration and cell death in primary mouse sensory neurons. These degenerative events are not blocked by inhibitors of canonical programmed cell death pathways such as apoptosis, necroptosis, and parthanatos. Instead, the axodestructive factor Sarm1 is required for this axon degeneration and cell death. In the absence of Sarm1, the mitochondrial poison CCCP still induces depolarization of mitochondria, ATP depletion, calcium influx, and the accumulation of ROS, yet cell death and axon degeneration are blocked.

Coleman Correspondence [email protected] In Brief Gilley et al. find that SARM1 promotes axon degeneration after NMNAT2 depletion and limits outgrowth of axons constitutively lacking NMNAT2. The NMNAT substrate NMN also appears to be pro-degenerative in both situations. Restricted outgrowth of NMNAT2- deficient axons is thus mechanistically related to the degeneration of established axons. Highlights d SARM1 is required for WLDS-sensitive axon degeneration caused by NMNAT2 depletion d SARM1 deficiency rescues developmental axon defects caused by a lack of NMNAT2 d Mice lacking NMNAT2 and SARM1 are viable d Lowering NMN by inhibiting NAMPT partially rescues growth of NMNAT2-deficient axons Gilley et al., 2015, Cell Reports 10, 1974–1981 March 31, 2015 ª2015 The Authors http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2015.02.060 Cell Reports Report Absence of SARM1 Rescues Development and Survival of NMNAT2-Deficient Axons Jonathan Gilley,1 Giuseppe Orsomando,2 Isabel Nascimento-Ferreira,1 and Michael P.

Its prevalence and incidence increase exponentially with age and the level of intraocular pressure (IOP). IOP reduction is currently the only therapeutic modality shown to slow glaucoma progression. However, patients still lose vision despite best treatment, suggesting that other factors confer susceptibility. Several studies indicate that mitochondrial function may underlie both susceptibility and resistance to developing glaucoma. Mitochondria meet high energy demand, in the form of ATP, that is required for the maintenance of optimum retinal ganglion cell (RGC) function. Reduced nicotinamide adenine Citation: Petriti, B.; Williams, P.A.; dinucleotide (NAD+) levels have been closely correlated to mitochondrial dysfunction and have Lascaratos, G.; Chau, K.-Y.; been implicated in several neurodegenerative diseases including glaucoma. NAD+ is at the centre Garway-Heath, D.F.
