Journal ArticleDOI
SMN regulates axonal local translation via miR-183/mTOR pathway
Min Jeong Kye,Emily D. Niederst,Mary H. Wertz,Inês do Carmo G. Gonçalves,Bikem Akten,Katarzyna Z. Dover,Miriam Peters,Markus Riessland,Pierre Neveu,Brunhilde Wirth,Kenneth S. Kosik,S. Pablo Sardi,Umrao R. Monani,Marco A. Passini,Mustafa Sahin +14 more
TL;DR: It is reported that reduced SMN protein level alters miRNA expression and distribution in neurons, and it is demonstrated that miR-183 regulates translation of mTor via direct binding to its 3' UTR.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of miRNA in motor neuron disease
TL;DR: Current knowledge about the role of miRNAs in motor neuron disorders, especially about two common diseases: SMA and ALS is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decreased microRNA levels lead to deleterious increases in neuronal M2 muscarinic receptors in Spinal Muscular Atrophy models
Patrick J O'Hern,Inês do Carmo G. Gonçalves,Johanna Brecht,Eduardo Javier López Soto,Jonah Simon,Natalie Chapkis,Diane Lipscombe,Min Jeong Kye,Anne C. Hart +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggest decreased SMN leads to defective microRNA function via MEL-46 misregulation, followed by increased m2R expression, and neuronal dysfunction in SMA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuronal activity regulates DROSHA via autophagy in spinal muscular atrophy
Inês do Carmo G. Gonçalves,Johanna Brecht,Maximilian P. Thelen,Wiebke A. Rehorst,Miriam Peters,Hyun Ju Lee,Susanne Motameny,Laura Torres-Benito,Darius Ebrahimi-Fakhari,Natalia L. Kononenko,Janine Altmüller,David Vilchez,Mustafa Sahin,Brunhilde Wirth,Min Jeong Kye +14 more
TL;DR: It is reported that expression of DROSHA, which is a critical enzyme in the microprocessor complex and essential for miRNA biogenesis, is reduced in motor neurons from an SMA mouse model, and this suggests that autophagy regulates RNA metabolism and neuronal growth via the DROSha/miRNA pathway and this pathway is dysregulated in SMA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dysregulation of RNA Mediated Gene Expression in Motor Neuron Diseases.
TL;DR: Current findings on ALS and SMA have similar cellular pathological mechanisms including mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress and dysregulation in RNA-mediated gene expression, with specific focus on miRNA expression, pre-mRNA processing and RNA binding proteins.
