Cole A, Noble W, van Aalten L, Plattner F, Meimaridou R, Hogan D, et al.
J Neurochem . 2007 Aug; 103(3):1132-44. PMID: 17683481
Collapsin response mediator protein 2 (CRMP2) is an abundant brain-enriched protein that can regulate microtubule assembly in neurons. This function of CRMP2 is regulated by phosphorylation by glycogen synthase kinase...

Williams R, Jensen L, Verkhratsky A, Fugger L, Burdakov D
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2007 Jun; 104(25):10685-90. PMID: 17563364
Hypothalamic orexin/hypocretin neurons recently emerged as key orchestrators of brain states and adaptive behaviors. They are critical for normal stimulation of wakefulness and breathing: Orexin loss causes narcolepsy and compromises...

Arboleda G, Huang T, Waters C, Verkhratsky A, Fernyhough P, Gibson R
Eur J Neurosci . 2007 Jun; 25(10):3030-8. PMID: 17561816
Ceramide is a lipid second-messenger generated in response to stimuli associated with neurodegeneration that induces apoptosis, a mechanism underlying neuronal death in Parkinson's disease. We tested the hypothesis that insulin-like...

Watson P, Humphries M, Relton J, Rothwell N, Verkhratsky A, Gibson R
Mol Cell Neurosci . 2006 Dec; 34(2):147-54. PMID: 17150373
Integrins mediate cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and initiate intracellular signaling. They play key roles in the central nervous system (CNS), participating in synaptogenesis, synaptic transmission and memory formation,...

Huang T, Verkhratsky A, Fernyhough P
Mol Cell Neurosci . 2004 Dec; 28(1):42-54. PMID: 15607940
We tested the hypothesis that neurotrophic factors control neuronal metabolism by directly regulating mitochondrial function in the absence of effects on survival. Real-time whole cell fluorescence video microscopy was utilized...

Neurobiol Aging . 2004 May; 25(3):349-59. PMID: 15123341
Mitochondrial membrane potential is a major factor that controls, ultimately, the cellular energy supply. By use of a mitochondrial membrane potential dye (rhodamine 123, R123) and image analysis we show...

J Peripher Nerv Syst . 2003 Dec; 8(4):227-35. PMID: 14641647
Symmetrical sensory polyneuropathy, the most common form of diabetic neuropathy in humans, is associated with a spectrum of structural changes in peripheral nerve that includes axonal degeneration, paranodal demyelination, and...
