HERC 1 Ubiquitin Ligase Mutation Affects Neocortical, CA3 Hippocampal and Spinal Cord Projection Neurons: An Ultrastructural Study
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
The spontaneous mutation tambaleante is caused by the Gly483Glu substitution in the highly conserved N terminal RCC1-like domain of the HERC1 protein, which leads to the increase of mutated protein levels responsible for ...

Selective deletion of Caspase-3 gene in the dopaminergic system exhibits autistic-like behaviour
(Elsevier, 2021-01-10)
Apoptotic caspases are thought to play critical roles in elimination of excessive and non-functional synapses and removal of extra cells during early developmental stages. Hence, an impairment of this process may thus ...

Inflammatory bowel disease induces pathologicalα-synucleinaggregation in the human gut and brain
(Wiley, 2024-01-16)
Aims According to Braak's hypothesis, it is plausible that Parkinson's disease (PD) originates in the enteric nervous system (ENS) and spreads to the brain through the vagus nerve. In this work, we studied whether ...

HERC1 Ubiquitin Ligase Is Required for Hippocampal Learning and Memory
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Mutations in the human HERC1 E3 ubiquitin ligase protein develop intellectual disability. The tambaleante (tbl) mouse carries a HERC1 mutation characterized by cerebellar ataxia due of adult cerebellar Purkinje cells death ...

HERC1 Ubiquitin Ligase Is Required for Normal Axonal Myelination in the Peripheral Nervous System
(Springer, 2018-03-30)
A missense mutation in HERC1 provokes loss of cerebellar Purkinje cells, tremor, and unstable gait in tambaleante (tbl) mice. Recently, we have shown that before cerebellar degeneration takes place, the tbl mouse suffers ...

The Absence of Caspase-8 in the Dopaminergic System Leads to Mild Autism-like Behavior
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
In the last decade, new non-apoptotic roles have been ascribed to apoptotic caspases. This family of proteins plays an important role in the sculpting of the brain in the early stages of development by eliminating excessive ...
