Notch: from neural development to neurological disorders Lathia JD; Mattson MP; Cheng AJ Neurochem 2008[Dec]; 107 (6): 1471-81Notch is an integral membrane protein that functions as receptor for ligands such as jagged and delta that are associated with the surface of neighboring cells. Upon ligand binding, notch is proteolytically cleaved within its transmembrane domain by presenilin-1 (the enzymatic component of the gamma-secretase complex) resulting in the release of a notch intracellular domain which translocates to the nucleus where it regulates gene expression. Notch signaling plays multiple roles in the development of the CNS including regulating neural stem cell (NSC) proliferation, survival, self-renewal and differentiation. Notch is also present in post-mitotic neurons in the adult CNS wherein its activation influences structural and functional plasticity including processes involved in learning and memory. Recent findings suggest that notch signaling in neurons, glia, and NSCs may be involved in pathological changes that occur in disorders such as stroke, Alzheimer's disease and CNS tumors. Studies of animal models suggest the potential of agents that target notch signaling as therapeutic interventions for several different CNS disorders.|Animals[MESH]|Cell Differentiation[MESH]|Cell Proliferation[MESH]|Central Nervous System/cytology/*growth & development[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Mental Recall/physiology[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Nervous System Diseases/*metabolism/*pathology[MESH]|Neurons/*physiology[MESH]|Receptors, Notch/*physiology[MESH]|Signal Transduction[MESH] |
