Prolonged production of IL-17 by Th17 cells is dependent on the transcription factor Batf. Recent studies suggest that prolonged production of IL-17 by Th17 cells is dependent on the synergistic actions of the RORt and Batf-JunB transcription factors. These fi ndings may have implications for Th17-related autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis. Following induction of autoimmune conditions in mice using myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) immunization, diff erentiated Th17 cells secrete proinfl ammatory , and activated macrophages destroy myelin and damage oligodendrocytes. It remains to be determined whether the induction of Batf expression is dependent on STAT3 in Th17 cells, and whether an interaction between Batf and Irf4 or Ahr is required to promote the respective induction of IL-21 and IL-22.

A Tumor Suppressing & Tumor Obesity-induced Activation of the Nlrp3 Inflammasome Promoting Factor Promotes Insulin Resistance Obesity is a serious health problem characterized by an excessive expansion of the white adipose tissue coupled with a state of chronic, low-grade inflammation.1 Inflammation occurs as a result of immune cell infiltration of the adipose tissue and increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines.2 These changes www. RnDSystems.com negatively affect normal adipocyte functions, such as triglyceride storage and lipolysis, leading to high circulating levels of free fatty acids and ectopic lipid accumulation.3 In addition, elevated levels of pro- inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1E, IL-6, and TNF-D, reduce insulin sensitivity, which can lead to the development of type II diabetes if insulin production by the pancreatic E cells is not sufficiently increased.4-6 Although it has been recognized for some time that pro-inflammatory factors inhibit insulin signaling, the molecular mechanisms that trigger inflammation and sustained cytokine production during obesity are not well understood. The first evidence of an obesity-related signal that could initiate the inflammatory response came from reports that saturated fatty acids activate Toll-like receptors (TLRs).7-9 TLRs are a family of membrane- associated pattern recognition receptors that detect invading pathogens and activate the innate immune response. These studies demonstrated that fatty acids, like microbial pathogens, promote TLR-induced inflammation. It was subsequently shown that disruption of TLR4 or a loss of function mutation in TLR4 protects against high fat diet-induced insulin resistance in mice, suggesting that fatty acid-induced TLR4 signaling provides a link between obesity, inflammation, and insulin resistance.10,11 Continued on page 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS

R&D SYSTEMS NEUROSCIENCE CATALOG The fi eld of neuroscience is one of the most fascinating and complex branches of biological science. At the earliest stages of development, the regulated expression and activity of specifi c directs multipotent stem cells down neural pathways. Morphogenic factors regulate neuroectoderm diff erentiation, the formation of the neural tube, and fi nally the development of the brain and spinal cord. The growth cones at the tips of extending axons are exquisitely sensitive to a myriad of environmental cues that govern their directed migration toward specifi c targets. Once there, the process of synaptogenesis incorporates neurons into complex electrochemical networks. By adulthood, the brain may contain more than 100 trillion synapses, their integrated signals controlling virtually all aspects of life. With age, the nervous system becomes more vulnerable to dysfunction and disease. For instance, the risk of Alzheimer's disease doubles every 5 years after the age of 65 and reaches 50% by the age of 85. We advance our understanding of nervous system pathology with the hope of developing therapies to address some of society's most economically and socially devastating diseases. R&D Systems off ers a range of high quality reagents for studying all areas of neuroscience, from neural stem cells to neurodegenerative disease. These include a wide range of high performance antibodies, and the most referenced collection of bioactive and immunoassays in the industry. Primary rat and mouse cortical stem cells are also available, as well as kits for the expansion, diff erentiation, and identifi cation of neural stem cells, and multiplex assays for the simultaneous detection of multiple analytes.

Additional Neurotrophic Factors & Receptors The table below provides a brief description of the neurotrophic factors that are not included within the GDNF, Neurotrophin, or VPS10P-domain families.

Table 1. Additional Neurotrophic Factors & Receptors FACTOR FULL NAME FAMILY BACKGROUND HOMOLOGY CDNF Conserved dopamine CDNF/MANF A recently discovered neurotrophic factor, CDNF promotes the survival of dopaminergic neurons in vitro and in vivo, and is a candidate 62% H M neurotrophic factor for Parkinson’s disease therapy.1 CLC/NNT/ Cardiotrophin-like cytokine/ gp130/Four helix A paralog of CNTF, CLC is secreted as a heteromeric composite cytokine with CLF-1 (CLC/CLF-1) or CNTF R (CLC/ CNTF R). Like CNTF 96% H M BSF-3 novel neurotrophin-1/ bundle cytokine and Neuropoietin, CLC signals through a tripartite complex composed of CNTF R, LIF R, and gp130 (Figure 7).2 B cell stimulating factor-3 CLF-1 Cytokine-like Factor-1 Cytokine type-I CLF-1 is secreted as a heteromeric composite cytokine with CLC (CLC/CLF-1) and signals through the tripartite complex composed of 96% H M receptor gp130, LIF R, and CNTF R (Figure 7). Recent studies suggest that Sortilin interacts with LIF R to promote CLC/CLF-1 signal transduction.3 CNTF Ciliary neurotrophic factor gp130/Four helix Originally discovered as a survival factor for chick ciliary parasympathetic neurons, recent studies showed that CNTF increased 83% H R bundle cytokine neurogenesis in mouse dentate gyrus and induced neuronal regeneration in a rat model of retinal degeneration.4,5 CT-1 Cardiotrophin-1 gp130/Four helix Highly expressed in heart, , liver and kidney, with lower expression levels in brain, CT-1 has been shown to exert 79% H M bundle cytokine neuroprotective eff ects against ischemic insult by inhibiting Caspase-8 and Caspase-3.6 IL-6 -6 IL-6 family/Four helix IL-6 aff ects a range of important actions in the CNS, including eff ects on neuron homeostasis, astrogliogenesis, and neuronal 41% H M bundle cytokine diff erentiation.7 LIF Leukemia inhibitory factor gp130/Four helix LIF is a variably glycosylated polypeptide originally identifi ed as a proliferation inhibitor and diff erentiation inducer of eth mouse M1 78% H M bundle cytokine myeloid leukemia cell line.8 MANF Mesencephalic astrocyte- CDNF/MANF Recent studies of this neuroprotective factor suggest the 3D structure of the C-terminal domain is homologous to the SAP domain of 99% H R derived neurotrophic factor Ku70, an established inhibitor of pro-apoptotic Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax).9 98% H M Meteorin – Orphan ligand A developmentally important secreted protein that is expressed in undiff erentiated neural precursor cells and astrocyte lineages. 82% H M GFAP-positive glial diff erentiation induced by Meteorin is thought to require activation of the Jak-STAT3 pathway.10 MK Heparin-binding Midkine promotes the survival and migration of many cell types and has been pathologically linked to a variety of cancers. Recent 87% H M growth factor studies showed that increased Midkine expression in rat brain was neuroprotective against excitotoxic and ischemic injury.11,12 Neuritin Also known as Candidate – Neuritin is a GPI-linked molecule that promotes neurite extension and arborization.13 The expression of Neuritin is upregulated 99% H M R plasticity 15 (CPG15) in response to BDNF, NT-3, androgens, and hypoxia.14 NP Neuropoietin, Cardiotrophin-2 gp130/Four helix Highly expressed in neuroepithelia, Neuropoietin is an important factor for CNS development. Recent studies suggest Neuropoietin 95% M R (CT-2) bundle cytokine can signal independently of LIF R in non-neuronal cells.15 PTN /heparin-binding Heparin-binding A developmentally regulated neurotrophic factor, Pleiotrophin can be used as an attachment substrate to promote neurite outgrowth. 98% H M R neurotrophic factor (HBNF) growth factor Studies showed that Pleiotrophin knockout increased the vulnerability of mouse striatal dopaminergic neurons to amphetamine neurotoxicity.16 Teneurin-1 – Tenascin A single transmembrane protein, Teneurin-1 promotes neurite outgrowth and cell-cell adhesion via homophilic interactions. 96% H M C-terminal cleavage generates Teneurin C-terminal associated peptide (TCAP-1), which has been shown to increase neurite outgrowth (a.a. 1-317) in immortalized mouse hypothalamic neurons.17

Ephrin Ligands & Eph Receptors Highly expressed in the developing nervous system, are ligands signaling.9 Ephrin-B ligands have also been shown to promote synapse for transmembrane Eph receptor tyrosine kinases. They are involved in a formation and maturation by reverse signaling following binding by wide range of critical developmental processes, including cell adhesion, EphB2.10 cell migration, angiogenesis, axon guidance, and synaptogenesis.1 In Many studies have investigated the modulation of NMDA receptor addition, Ephrin/Eph signaling is also important for neuronal regeneration expression by EphB receptors, an action that is thought to aff ect learning and neural progenitor cell diff erentiation in the adult.2 There are nine and memory. Recent studies by Nolt et al. showed that EphB2 phos- Ephrin ligands, which are divided into two subfamilies, Ephrin-A1 to -A6 phorylates NMDA receptor subunit NR2B to control its localization at the and Ephrin-B1 to -B3. Ephrin-A ligands are glycosylphosphatidylinositol synapse.11 Further studies in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer’s (GPI)-linked proteins that generally bind to EphA receptors.

Repulsive Guidance Molecules & Receptors In mammals, the Repulsive Guidance Molecule (RGM) family consists of RGM-B, also know as DRAGON (turned ON in DRG), is expressed throughout three glycoproteins that have discrete expression patterns and functions the CNS in an almost non-overlapping distribution to RGM-A. Although (RGM-A, RGM-B, and RGM-C).1 A fourth member, RGM-D, is only expressed RGM-B is a homolog of RGM-A, it has been shown to exert no repulsive in fi sh. RGMs share common structural domains, including a N-terminal action on migrating axons.10 Instead, recent studies reported that RGM-B signal sequence, a partial von Willebrand factor (vWF) type D domain, and inhibits neuronal migration in the developing dentate gyrus and that this a C-terminal glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor. RGM proteins can action is dependent on Neogenin.11 RGM-C/Hemojuvelin is not expressed exist as single chain proteins or two chains linked by disulphide bridges, in the CNS. Mutations in the gene that encodes RGM-C result in juvenile following cleavage at a highly conserved site within the vWF domain. In hemochromatosis, an autosomal-recessive disease characterized by early addition, RGM-A and RGM-C also contain a RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) motif, an onset systemic iron overload.12 RGM-C is thought to control the expression Integrin thought to facilitate cell adhesion. of hepcidin, a key regulator of iron metabolism in hepatocytes. RGMs are known to function through Neogenin, a homologue of the Netrin References receptor Deleted in Colon Cancer (DCC). Like DCC, Neogenin is a type I 1. Severyn, J. et al. (2009) Biochem.

Contactin Family Contactins compose a subgroup of the Immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily Contactin-2 is expressed on subsets of neurons in the spinal cord, dorsal of cell adhesion molecules (IgCAM). This molecule group consists of root ganglion, and retinal ganglion cells. Expression of Contactin-2 Contactin-1, Contactin-2/TAG-1, Contactin-3/BIG-1, Contactin-4/BIG-2, is essential for the tangential migration of GABA-positive cortical Contactin-5/NB2, and Contactin-6/NB3.1 Members of the Contactin family interneurons from the medial ganglionic eminence of the ventral share a common molecular structure, which includes six Ig-like domains, telencephalon.5 Contactin-2 also mediates the superfi cial migration of four fi bronectin type-III domains, and a glycosylphosphatidylinositol neuronal populations that form several precerebellar nuclei through (GPI) anchor. Contactins exert critical eff ects during development and the superfi cial and olivary migratory streams to the caudal medulla.6 In in the adult nervous system. Their actions infl uence essential biological addition, knockout of Contactin-2 results in aberrant chemorepulsion of processes including neural migration, adhesion, and diff erentiation, and somatosensory aff erent neurons in the dorsal horn.7 neurite outgrowth and fasciculation. Contactin-1 and Contactin-2 are known to play important roles at With the exception of Contactin-2, which is expressed during the specialized domains located in myelinated axons. At nodes of development, Contactin expression commences postnatally. Because Ranvier, one micrometer long interruptions in the myelin sheath, Contactins are expressed on axons and are known to promote neurite Contactin-1 binds to the 1 subunit of voltage-gated sodium channels outgrowth, initial studies investigated the role of Contactins in axon to enhance their cell surface expression.8 On the axon plasma membrane guidance and cell migration. In the postnatal cerebellum, Contactin-1 (axolemma), Contactin-1 binds Contactin-associated Protein (Caspr) and is expressed on migratory granule cells. Interestingly, the subcellular Neurofascin-155 to promote the formation of paranodes, myelinated expression of Contactin-1 changes during migration. Expression levels regions that fl ank nodes of Ranvier.9 Furthermore, glial Contactin-2 are decreased in the cell body but maintained on axonal extensions in the interacts with axonal Caspr2 and voltage-gated potassium channels to molecular layer.2 Genetic knockout experiments suggest that Contactin-1 maintain the juxtaparanode domain and ensure rapid action potential controls axodendritic interactions between cerebellar interneurons, propogation.10 and is required for normal cerebellar morphogenesis.3 Recent studies Less is known about the physiological roles of Contactins-3 through -6. suggest that the sequential expression of Contactin-2 and Contactin-1 In adult brain, Contactin-3 is expressed in specifi c neuron populations, regulates Sonic Hedgehog (Shh)-induced proliferation and diff erentiation including Purkinje cells in the cerebellum, granule cells in the dentate 4 of cerebellar granule neuron progenitor cells. This research found that gyrus of the hippocampus, and neurons in the superfi cial layer of the Contactin-1 inhibits Shh dependent proliferation and promotes neuronal cerebral cortex.11 Contactin-4 is believed to orchestrate the convergence diff erentiation via the L1-like NgCAM-related cell adhesion molecule of olfactory sensory neurons and is crucial for the formation and (NrCAM) (Figure 19). In contrast, Contactin-2 binds NrCAM to antagonize maintenance of the odor map in the olfactory bulb.12 Highly restricted to Contactin-1 and facilitate cell proliferation. specifi c brain regions, Contactin-5 knockout impairs auditory brainstem function by decreasing synapse formation and inducing neuronal Intermediate Granule oEGL apoptosis.13 Similarly, genetic deletion of Contactin-6 specifi cally reduced Neuron Progenitors mEGL the formation of glutaminergic synapses in the cerebellum, supporting Sonic Hedgehog iEGL the hypothesis that Contactin-6 modulates cerebellar control of motor coordination.14 A recent study showed that Contactin-1 binds Protein ML Tyrosine Phosphatase Receptor  (PTPR) and Contactins-3 through -6 bind to PTPR, presenting a novel mechanism by which Contactins may IGL induce intracellular signaling.15

To facilitate synaptic adhesion, axons that connect homotropic brain regions via the corpus callosum.7 Nectin molecules are anchored to the Actin cytoskeleton via a PDZ- Recent studies suggest that activity-dependent cleavage of Nectin-1 dependent interaction with Afadin, which in turn binds F-Actin. During induces dendritic spine remodeling and may represent a novel mode of the generation of new synapses, Nectins are believed to form a relatively synaptic plasticity.8 Kim et al. discovered that NMDA receptor activation weak adhesion complex, which is strengthened following the recruitment caused proteolytic processing of Nectin-1 by ADAM10 and -Secretase, an of Cadherin molecules.1 eff ect that was dependent on calcium infl ux and Calmodulin (Figure 20).8 Cadherins are single-pass transmembrane cell adhesion molecules with a ADAM10 also aff ects dendritic spine morphology through cleavage of variable number of extracellular calcium-binding cadherin repeats.

SynCAM, NCAM, & L1CAM Families The immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily of cell adhesion molecules (IgCAM) Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) was one of the fi rst proteins shown is an evolutionarily ancient and diverse group of proteins, several members to be involved in interneuronal adhesion. In neurons, one NCAM gene of which exert important neural actions via homotropic and heterotropic generates three isoforms, two single-pass transmembrane proteins and interactions. SynCAMs were fi rst identifi ed as calcium-independent a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked protein. In cultured hippo- synapse-inducing molecules, but are now known to mediate myelination campal neurons, synaptogenesis required postsynaptic NCAM modifi ed by facilitating the interaction between Schwann cells and axons.1,2 Also with polysialic acid (PSA), and activation of NMDA and FGF receptors.8 referred to as Nectin-like molecules (Necl) 1-4 and Ig superfamily (IgSF) Recent studies suggest the activation of intracellular signaling molecules 4A-D, the diff erential expression pattern of SynCAM-1 to -4 is thought to by NCAM is dependent on its dimerization in cis (Figure 21)9. Other groups provide adhesion signals for neuronal circuit formation.3 have studied the eff ects of NCAM expression on neurite outgrowth. Cassens described a functional relationship between NCAM and TrkB, Although generally considered to infl uence the later stages of neural et al. in which BDNF stimulation of TrkB lead to NCAM phosphorylation and the circuit formation, recent studies report that SynCAMs also aff ect axon extension of hippocampal neurites.10 In parallel, proteolytic processing guidance. Niederkofl er et al. investigated the importance of SynCAM expression for the guidance of commissural axons in chick spinal cord. of NCAM and FAK was shown to be required for cerebellar neurite Their fi ndings indicate that the expression of SynCAM-2 on fl oor plate outgrowth. This eff ect was dependent on endosomal translocation of 11 cells is required for the rostral turning of axons following their crossing the intracellular fragments of NCAM and FAK to the nucleus. Studies by Westphal et al. reported that clustering of NCAM in hippocampal of the midline.4 Additional studies showed that SynCAM-1 is expressed at neurites promotes outgrowth by inducing Caspase-8 and -3-dependent the cell surface of growth cones and, in concert with focal adhesion kinase modifi cation of the submembranous Spectrin meshwork.12 (FAK), regulates growth cone morphology and axodendritic contact with target neurites.5 Transgenic experiments also suggest that SynCAM-1 The L1CAM group of proteins, which includes NCAM-L1, Neurofascin, Nr- specifi cally promotes the formation of excitatory synapses and can aff ect CAM, and CHL-1, have been shown to exert a broad range of adhesion- the plasticity of mature synaptic connections.6 Recent reports revealed dependent neural eff ects. The hippocampus-specifi c deletion of mouse that post-translational modifi cation is an important factor governing NCAM-L1 enhanced basal excitatory transmission, suggesting a role SynCAM biology. For example, N-glycosylation of the Ig1 domain for NCAM-L1 at inhibitory synapses.13 Neurofascin, which is known to enhances SynCAM-1 mediated synaptic adhesion, but has the opposite mediate myelination, may be a target for autoantibodies during Guillian- eff ect on SynCAM-2.7 Barré syndrome-induced destruction of the peripheral nervous system.14 Interactions between NrCAM and Neuropilin-2 are required for Sema- phorin 3F dependent guidance of thalamocortical neurons, disruption of which is believed to cause autism spectrum disorders.15 In the sub- ventricular zone (SVZ) of mouse brain, knockout of CHL-1 increased the Postsynaptic number of neural progenitor cells and promoted neuronal diff erentiation, suggesting the physiological functions of CHL-1 include negatively regulating these processes.16 NCAM 120 TrkB References

Epigenetics refers to changes in gene expression that brain evoked an explosion of research in the 1990s.3 Now it is established are independent of alterations to the genomic DNA sequence. This that adult neurogenesis, the generation of functional neuronal cells from may be achieved by DNA methylation, histone modifi cation, chromatin adult neural progenitors, occurs continuously in two distinct regions of remodeling, and/or transcriptional feedback loops.7 the mammalian brain. Adult neurogenesis is also aff ected by extrinsic factors including a In the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the dentate gyrus in the hippocampus broad range of physiological, pharmacological, and environmental adult neural stem cells diff erentiate into dentate granule cells.

Synaptic Proteins The human brain contains over one hundred trillion synapses, specialized zone.9 This process requires soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion intercellular junctions that facilitate the transfer of information from one protein attachment receptors (SNAREs), which catalyze fusion by forming neuron to another.1 Transmission of information across the synaptic cleft a complex that bridges the two fusing membranes.10 Calcium entry is fast, dynamic, highly effi cient, and tightly regulated. The formation induces simultaneous binding of Synaptotagmin to the vesicle and target of new synapses is prompted by the recognition of a target cell by the membranes, and assembly of the SNARE complex. Syntaxin-1 and SNAP- neuronal growth cone and is thought to involve four stages: initiation, 25 on the vesicle membrane, and VAMP/Synaptobrevin on the plasma specifi cation, diff erentiation, and maturation.2 Synapse formation and membrane, form an -helix that brings the two membranes together. function are dependent on trans-synaptic cell adhesion molecules that SM-proteins (Sec1/Munc18-like) bind to trans-SNARE complexes to direct bridge the synaptic cleft and mediate essential signaling between the fusion. Recently, Complexin has been shown to be an important part of presynaptic and postsynaptic specializations (Figure 24). the fusion machinery.11,12 Complexin binds SNARE complexes to both 13,14 Two of the most studied synaptic adhesion molecule families are suppress spontaneous fusion and promote calcium-evoked fusion.

Farfara et al. discovered that interfering with PS-1 function hippo campus and cortex. Neuropathological hallmarks of AD include impaired the phagocytosis of soluble A by mouse microglia.5 In parallel, neuronal loss in the presence of neurofi brillary tangles and senile Jayadev et al. reported that knockdown of PS-2 in mouse microglia plaques. Neurofi brillary tangles are intraneuronal inclusions composed decreased -Secretase activity.6 This study also found that impairment of insoluble hyper phosphorylated forms of the microtubule protein Tau. of PS-2 function resulted in an exaggerated microglial release of TNF- Senile plaques represent extracellular deposits of aggregated Amyloid-  and IL-6, suggesting PS-2 dysfunction may also contribute to neuro- protein (A ), the proposed causative agent of AD. Prior to its deposition as  infl ammation during AD. Further reports suggest a novel role for PS-1 in senile plaques, A oligomerizes to exert pathological actions on neuron  axon guidance. PS-1 was shown to be required for the processing of DCC function and viability.2 receptors, which are essential for Netrin-mediated chemoattraction.7 A is generated by sequential enzymatic processing of Amyloid Precursor  AD therapies that are in the advanced stages of development mostly Protein (APP), a type I transmembrane protein. The majority of APP target A production, aggregation, or clearance. Although most clinical is cleaved by -Secretase, which does not produce A and is termed   trials focus on the treatment of symptomatic patients, it has been non-amyloidogenic (Figure 26). Putative -Secretases include ADAM9,  suggested that earlier intervention or disease prevention would be a ADAM10, and ADAM17/TACE.1 In contrast, a small percentage of APP more eff ective strategy.8 Research studies have investigated enzymes is processed by -Secretases, such as BACE-1 and D, which  that are known to degrade A (i.e. ACE, Cystatin C, ECE, IDE, MMPs, yields soluble APP (sAPP ) and a -C-terminal Fragment ( -CTF). The     Neprilysin, Plasmin) and receptors that are involved in the uptake of A -CTF fragment is further cleaved by -Secretase to generate A . The    (i.e. APP, CD36, FPRL, LDL R, LRP1,  -Macroglobulin, MARCO, SR-A1, and activity of -Secretase requires four components; Presenilin (PS, PS-1 or 2  RAGE). In fact, a recent report suggested that a combinatorial therapy PS-2), Presenilin Enhancer-2 (PEN-2), Nicastrin, and Anterior Pharynx- designed to block A production and enhance A clearance might defective-1 (Aph-1). Primarily located in the endoplasmic reticulum, represent the most eff ective approach.9 trans-Golgi network and endosomes, -Secretase activity is modulated by additional factors, including CD147/EMMPRIN.3 Mutations in APP and PS, Recent mechanistic studies revealed novel targets for AD prevention and treatment.

Parkinson’s Disease Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that Mitochondrial dysfunction is thought to be central to the pathogenesis of is characterized by the death of dopaminergic neurons projecting from PD. This theory is supported by the fact that mutations in mitochondrial the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) to the striatum. In addition to PTEN-induced Kinase 1 (PINK1), Parkin, HTRA2/Omi, and Park7/DJ-1 result neuron loss, the major neuropathological hallmark of PD is the deposition in recessive forms of the disease. Recent studies suggest that PINK1 is of Lewy bodies throughout the nigrostriatal pathway and in other parts responsible for the disposal of dysfunctional mitochondria, which leak of the brain.1 Lewy bodies are intracellular inclusions composed of harmful ROS.12 Removal of defective mitochondria by macroautophagy -Synuclein that appear in an ascending course from the brain stem to requires relocation of Parkin from the cytoplasm to the mitochondria.12 the cortex.

Multiple Sclerosis Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative autoimmune disorder degeneration through the release of infl ammatory cytokines (Figure 29). that is characterized by demyelination of neurons in the brain and spinal Tissue damage reveals novel antigens to DCs that induce a new wave of cord.1 The leading cause of disability in young adults, disease onset occurs autoimmune attack. This vicious cycle is termed ‘epitope spreading’ and suddenly between twenty and forty years of age. Relapsing-remitting MS underlies the relapsing phases of RRMS.9 (RRMS), the most common form of the disease, represents approximately There is no cure for MS. Current therapeutic options are restricted to 85% of MS patients. During RRMS, patients experience periods of disease modifying agents that off er symptomatic management only. exacerbation that are followed by a partial or complete recovery of Established treatment options, such as IFN-, signifi cantly improve MS defi cits. RRMS may evolve into secondary progressive MS (SPMS) and progression by modulating lymphocyte proliferation and directing the primary progressive MS (PPMS), which aff ect approximately 30% and 10% T cell response toward immunosuppressive Th2 and Treg cells.10 of patients with MS, respectively. Although patients with SPMS initially Fingolimod, the fi rst orally administered MS drug, was approved by the experience periods of remittance, both conditions are defi ned by a United States Food and Drug Administration in 2010. Fingolimod is a progressive decline, in the absence of recovery phases. The development Sphing osine-1 Phosphate Receptor agonist that attenuates immune of SPMS and PPMS indicates that extensive neuronal loss and axonal reactions by sequestering lymphocytes in the lymph nodes.11 Additional degeneration has occurred. studies are investigating mechanisms to induce the remyelination of The cause of MS is unknown.

However, following the detection of increasing Because the number of activated microglia increases in the brain during extracellular concentrations of potassium ions, ATP, or adenosine, AD, especially in regions where toxic Amyloid- protein is deposited as microglia and astrocytes are stimulated to release a potent cocktail of pro- senile plaques, many groups have investigated the potential benefi cial infl ammatory mediators. eff ects of nonsteroidal anti-infl ammatory drugs (NSAID).3,4 Recent Under normal physiological conditions, the brain is considered to be mechanistic studies showed that expression of a signal transduction- immunologically privileged. In fact, antigen presentation is actively defective mutant of the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products suppressed, glial cells are maintained in a quiescent state, and immune (RAGE) attenuated IL-1 and TNF- production, and neuroinfl ammation components are excluded from the brain by the blood-brain barrier.1 in a mouse model of AD.5 Using a rat 6-hydroxydopamine lesion model However, neuronal injury, or the presence of toxic material, stimulates the of PD, Walsh et al. reported that microgliosis occurred before release of pro-infl ammatory mediators that induce a neuroinfl ammatory dopaminergic neuron loss in the substantia nigra, supporting the response.

Under infl ammatory conditions, excessive concentrations of glutamate are found in the brain, where TNF- has been shown to increase glutamate MOG Glutamate uptake by activated microglia.9 A recent report suggested that glutamate TLR2 may inhibit neuroinfl ammation during MS by reducing the generation Adenylyl Cyclase mGluR4 of IL-17 producing T helper (Th17) cells, an action that is dependent on Gi/o ATP cAMP dendritic cell expression of metabotropic glutamate receptor 4 (mGluR4, Figure 31).10 An additional study reported that low concentrations of PKA glutamate reduced Nitric Oxide Synthase activity in cultured microglia IL-27 11 PKA IL-6, IL-23 by modulating adenosine adenosine A2A receptor signaling.

Nuclear and cytoplasmic ation in the proteasome.4 This process requires sequential reactions by proteins are typically destroyed by the ubiquitin proteasome system Ubiquitin (Ub)-activating (E1), Ub-conjugating (E2), and Ub- (E3) (UPS), whereas larger protein complexes, membrane-associated proteins, enzymes. The encodes approximately two E1, fi fty E2, and cellular organelles are hydrolyzed in the lysosomal compartment by a and fi ve hundred E3 enzymes, suggesting that the combination of E2 catabolic process termed autophagy. There are three forms of autophagy: and E3 determines substrate specifi city. Once ubiquitinated, substrates macroautophagy, microautophagy, and chaperone-mediated autophagy are conveyed to the proteasome by E3 enzymes, shuttling factors, or by (CMA).1 During macroautophagy, the most common form, regions of the binding to Ub receptors within the proteasomal membrane.5 Importantly, cytosol are enveloped by autophagosomes, double membrane sequest- the presence of approximately one hundred deubiquitinating enzymes ering vesicles.

In contrast, DUB activity antagonizes protein destruction if Autophagic dysfunction has been linked to several neurological deubiquitination occurs prior to proteasome delivery. disorders that are characterized by defective protein clearance including Like autophagy, UPS dysfunction is thought to contribute to the Alzheimer’s disease (A and Tau), Parkinson’s disease (-Synuclein), development of neurodegenerative disease.4 In addition, Ub-mediated Huntington’s disease (Huntingtin), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis signaling has been shown to play a critical role during long-term synaptic (TDP-43).1 The detrimental changes in autophagy associated with these plasticity and neurodevelopment. Studies have identifi ed many Ub conditions may refl ect decreased induction, increased repression, enzymes that regulate synaptic function (i.e. Nedd4, Parkin, UCH-L1) and altered cargo recognition, ineffi cient membrane fusion, and/or impaired neuronal activity is known to modulate the subcellular localization of degradation. This posited association has presented the possibility the proteasome.6 For example, Bingol et al. reported that NMDA receptor that pharmacological stimulation of autophagy may represent a novel dependent increases in intracellular calcium levels caused proteasome therapeutic strategy for neurodegenerative disease. Potential molecular organelles to shift from the dendritic shaft to the spine, an event that targets for the induction of autophagy include Beclin-1 and mTOR.

Apoptosis Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death. It plays critical roles in development and immunity, as well as cancer and neurodegenerative disease. Apoptosis is initiated by an extrinsic or intrinsic death signal, This specialized catalog features a which ultimately leads to the activation of intracellular (Figure restricted list of products for Apoptosis. 33). Multiple protein families are involved in the signaling pathways For a complete list of related products that promote or inhibit caspase activation. The extrinsic pathway of please visit: caspase activation (green arrows) involves ligand binding to cell surface www.RnDSystems.com/go/Apoptosis death receptors, belonging to the TNF receptor superfamily, while the intrinsic pathway (blue arrows) involves a loss of the integrity of the outer mitochondrial membrane, which is regulated by members of the Bcl-2 family of proteins. In addition to these two families of proteins, numerous other intracellular proteins, kinases, and transcription factors To request a copy of our Apoptosis Catalog play a role in promoting cell death, or acting to prevent it. R&D Systems please visit our website at: has developed and validated a wide variety of research reagents useful for www.RnDSystems.com/Request the characterization of these pro- and anti-apoptotic signaling pathways.

Proteome Profi ler Antibody Arrays: Now for use with LI-COR® Dyes The Proteome Profi ler line of membrane-based planar arrays has now been qualifi ed for use with the near-infrared fl uorescent dyes from LI-COR. Currently, the Human, Mouse, and Rat Proteome Profi ler Cytokine Arrays (Catalog # ARY005, ARY006, ARY008, respectively), and the Human Angiogenesis Array (Catalog # ARY007) can be adapted for use with LI-COR by the simple substitution of IRDye® 800CW Streptavidin (LI-COR Catalog # 926-32230) for the Streptavidin-HRP provided with the kit. The advantages of this substitution include cost savings on chemiluminescence reagents and X-ray fi lm and enhanced dye stability. For LI-COR-adapted protocols and more details about the kits suitable for use with the LI-COR dye, please visit our website at www.RnDSystems.com/go/LI-CORProtocols.

Proteome Profi ler 96 The Array in a Well Proteome Profi ler 96 Antibody Arrays consist of a 96-well microplate pre-spotted with a series of capture antibodies in each well. Experimental samples are added and target proteins present in the samples bind to the immobilized antibodies. A cocktail of biotinylated detection antibodies and Streptavidin-HRP or an HRP-conjugated pan anti-Phospho-Tyrosine antibody is subsequently used to detect the bound proteins. Chemiluminescent substrate reagents produce a signal that is proportional to the amount of analyte bound. A camera imaging system capable of chemiluminescent detection is used to determine the intensity of light emitted in individual spots.

Multiplex Kits for the Luminex® Platform: Fluorokine® MAP R&D Systems off ers a choice of products for Fluorokine Multianalyte Profi ling Multiplex Assays: as a stand-alone pre-mixed kit or as a Base Kit in combination with a panel of Analyte Kits. Each Analyte Kit contains antibody-coated microparticles and biotin-conjugated detection antibodies. The Base Kit contains all of the other reagents needed to perform the assay. This arrangement allows the end-user maximum fl exibility in creating panel composition. For ease of use, we also off er pre-mixed complete kits which contain all the reagents needed to simultaneously determine concentrations of multiple molecules from a single sample. Fluorokine MAP Multiplex Assays are subject to the same development, validation, manufacturing, and quality control standards as our Quantikine® ELISAs, the world’s most referenced immunoassays. The result is accurate, sensitive, and reproducible multiplex assays. For each sample type, the panel is evaluated and validated for sensitivity, precision, recovery, sample linearity, specifi city, and the ability to recognize both the natural and recombinant analyte.* Furthermore, all analytes in a given panel are optimized and tested together to ensure multiplex compatibility. For more information, please visit our website at www.RnDSystems.com/go/Multiplex * For each sample type, a single, multipurpose diluent is used to optimize recovery, linearity and reproducibility. Such a multipurpose diluent may not optimize any single analyte to the same degree that a unique diluent selected for analysis of that analyte can optimize conditions. Therefore, some performance characteristics may be more variable than those for assays designed specifi cally for single analyte analysis.

Extracellular Matrix: Coated Plates, Basement Membrane Extracts, Invasion Assays Extracellular matrix (ECM) is made up of proteins that include collagen, fi bronectin, laminin, and vitronectin. These molecules interact with cells via integrins and other cell surface receptors, facilitating the adhesion of cells to the ECM. The resulting focal adhesions or focal contacts are important for the maintenance of tissue architecture and for supporting a variety of cellular processes. ECM protein/integrin binding initiates a complex network of signal transduction cascades that, depending on the context, play an important role in cell spreading, migration, proliferation, and diff erentiation during embryogenesis, wound healing, and tumor development.

CHROMATIN IP KITS & MODULES Chromatin IP Kits R&D Systems ExactaChIP™ Chromatin Immuoprecipitation (ChIP) Kits are designed to provide a fast, simple method for the identifi cation of genomic DNA target sequences bound by a specifi c protein. Protein-DNA complexes are fi xed by formaldehyde crosslinking, the chromatin is sheared, and the complex is immunoprecipitated using an antibody specifi c for the target protein. Protein-bound DNA fragments are purifi ed and detected by standard PCR. ExactaChIP Kits may be used to identify conditions or treatments that activate the transcription factor of interest and to analyze regions in the DNA where the transcription factor binds. The antibodies provided in the kits have been validated for ChIP yielding rapid and reliable results.
