Inhibition of Cdk Activity02:34

Inhibition of Cdk Activity

5.5K
The orderly progression of the cell cycle depends on the activation of Cdk protein by binding to its cyclin partner. However, the cell cycle must be restricted when undergoing abnormal changes. Most cancers correlate to the deregulated cell cycle, and since Cdks are a central component of the cell cycle, Cdk inhibitors are extensively studied to develop anticancer agents. For instance, cyclin D associates with several Cdks, such as Cdk 4/6, to form an active complex. The cyclin D-Cdk4/6 complex...

Positive Regulator Molecules

6.4K
Mitotic cell division results in daughter cells that exactly resemble the parent cell. However, errors in the DNA replication or distribution of genetic material may lead to genetic mutations that may be passed down to every new cell formed from the resulting abnormal cell. Propagation of such mutant cells is restricted through checkpoint mechanisms present at different stages of the cell cycle. These checkpoints involve regulator molecules that either promote or demote cell cycle events.

To consistently produce healthy cells, the cell cycle—the process that generates daughter cells—must be precisely regulated.

Regulation of Nuclear Protein Sorting01:45

Regulation of Nuclear Protein Sorting

3.2K
Nuclear protein sorting regulates nucleus composition and gene expression, crucial for determining the fate of a eukaryotic cell. Hence, the entry and exit of molecules across the nuclear envelope is a tightly controlled process. Nuclear protein sorting can be inhibited by one of the following ways: 1) masking cargo signal sequences, 2) modifying the nuclear receptor's affinity for cargo, 3) controlling the nuclear pore size, 4) retaining the cargo during its transit to the cytosol or the...

Mitogens and the Cell Cycle02:38

Mitogens and the Cell Cycle

7.7K
Mitogens and their receptors play a crucial role in controlling the progression of the cell cycle. However, the loss of mitogenic control over cell division leads to tumor formation. Therefore, mitogens and mitogen receptors play an important role in cancer research. For instance, the epidermal growth factor (EGF) - a type of mitogen and its transmembrane receptor (EGFR), decides the fate of the cell's proliferation. When EGF binds to EGFR, a member of the ErbB family of tyrosine kinase...

M-Cdk Drives Transition Into Mitosis02:15

M-Cdk Drives Transition Into Mitosis

6.2K
Checkpoints throughout the cell cycle serve as safeguards and gatekeepers, allowing the cell cycle to progress in favorable conditions and slow or halt it in problematic ones. This regulation is known as the cell cycle control system.
Cyclin-dependent kinases, or Cdks, work in concert with cyclins to control cell cycle transitions. M-Cdk, a complex of Cdk1 bound to M cyclin, is a well-known example of this coordinated control that drives the transition from the G2 to the M phase.
M cyclin...

    Summary

    Bridging integrator 1 (BIN1) protein dysregulation in oligodendrocytes (OLs) is linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nuclear BIN1 isoforms regulate OL cell cycle, and their altered expression contributes to myelin pathology in AD.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Molecular Biology
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Bridging integrator 1 (BIN1) is a tumor suppressor protein inhibiting c-Myc, highly expressed in oligodendrocytes (OLs).
    • BIN1 variants are a significant genetic risk factor for sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD).
    • The regulation and function of BIN1 isoforms in OLs, particularly in AD, are poorly understood.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize BIN1 isoforms in OLs from Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains and mouse models.
    • To investigate the role of nuclear BIN1 in OLs and its potential contribution to AD pathology.

    Main Methods:

    • Immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry on postmortem human AD brains and APP/PS1 mice.
    • Analysis of primary murine OL cultures, including Bin1 silencing in OL progenitor cells (OPCs).
    • Transcriptomic analysis and in silico interaction studies.

    Main Results:

    • Neuronal BIN1 isoforms (BIN1:H) were reduced, while OL-specific isoforms (BIN1:L) increased in AD cases and mouse models.
    • Nuclear localization of OL-specific BIN1 isoforms was confirmed in human and mouse OLs (OPCs and mature OLs).
    • Bin1 silencing in OPCs altered transcriptomic profiles, affecting p53 pathway and cell cycle regulation, consistent with reduced c-Myc inhibition.

    Conclusions:

    • Nuclear BIN1 isoforms function as regulators of OL cell cycle control.
    • Dysregulation of BIN1 in OLs may mechanistically contribute to myelin pathology in sporadic AD.
    • These findings highlight BIN1's role in OLs and its implications for Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis.
