WIP is a negative regulator of neuronal maturation and synaptic activity.
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) -interacting protein (WIP) is an actin-binding protein involved in the regulation of actin polymerization in cells, such as fibroblasts and lymphocytes. Despite its recognized function in non-neuronal cells, the role of WIP in the central nervous system has not been examined previously. We used WIP-deficient mice to examine WIP function both in vivo and i...
متن کاملmdmx is a negative regulator of p53 activity in vivo.
Regulation of p53 protein activity is required for normal embryogenesis, tumor suppression, and cellular response to DNA damage. Here we report that loss of mdmx, a p53-binding protein, results in midgestational embryo lethality, a phenotype that is completely rescued by the absence of p53. Mice homozygous for both mdmx and p53 null mutations are viable and appear developmentally normal. Fibrob...
متن کاملSlamf8 is a negative regulator of Nox2 activity in macrophages
Slamf8 (CD353) is a cell surface receptor that is expressed upon activation of macrophages by interferon-gamma or bacteria. Here we report that a very high Nox2 activity enzyme was found in Slamf8−/− macrophages in response to E.coli or S.aureus, but also to phorbol myristate acetate. The elevated Nox2 activity in Slamf8−/− macrophages was also demonstrated in E.coli or S.aureus phagosomes by u...
متن کاملNkx3.2/Bapx1 acts as a negative regulator of chondrocyte maturation.
Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is essential to maintain a pool of dividing, immature chondrocytes in the growth plate of long bones. In chick and mouse, expression of Nkx3.2/Bapx1 in the growth plate is restricted to the proliferative zone and is down regulated as chondrocyte maturation begins. Nkx3.2/Bapx1 expression is lost in the growth plates of mice engineered to lack PTHrP si...
متن کاملNeuronal prostacyclin is an autocrine regulator of arterial baroreceptor activity.
We tested the hypothesis that neuronal prostacyclin is an autocrine regulator of arterial baroreceptor neuronal activity. In isolated rat aortic nodose baroreceptor neurons, mechanical stimulation depolarized 12 neurons by 13.1+/-3.4 mV and triggered action potentials in 5 of them, averaging 18.2+/-9.5 spikes. Current injections depolarized 21 neurons by 29.9+/-8.0 mV and triggered action poten...
