Small RNA regulators of social behaviour in eutherian mammals.

Abstract:

:Small non-coding miRNA appear to be vital in brain development and function by organising complex patterns of gene expression. These molecules are important for the regulation of synaptically localised mRNAs that encode proteins involved in neurotransmission and behaviour. In this issue of EMBO Reports, Lackinger et al [1] demonstrate that a large cluster of miRNAs, that emerged in placental mammals, functions as a repressor of social behaviour. This discovery has significant implications for our understanding of the brain, behaviour and in particular psychiatric syndromes, which have been shown to display alterations of these molecules.

  • Regulated intramembrane proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein and regulation of expression of putative target genes.

    abstract::gamma-Secretase-dependent regulated intramembrane proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein (APP) releases the APP intracellular domain (AICD). The question of whether this domain, like the Notch intracellular domain, is involved in nuclear signalling is highly controversial. Although some reports suggest that AICD reg...
