In eukaryotic cells, the exchange of molecules between the genetic material within the nucleus and the cytosol occurs through the Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC), which is a large membrane-embedded assembly composed by multiple proteins named nucleoporins arranged around an aqueous channel. The bi-directional passive diffusion and the active transport of factors across the nuclear envelope are responsible for a variety of biological processes and they are controlled respectively by the size of the pore and the interaction between nucleoporins and karyopherins. Thus, it is not surprising that most of the degenerative programs induce cellular stress by altering the NPC composition or the binding between nucleoporins and docking factors. This facilitates the access of nuclear DNA to pro-death factors, amplify the detrimental cascade and finally play a role in the disassembly of the nuclear structure. Recently, we have shown that during calcium-mediated neuronal degeneration NPC components can be degraded with consequent increase of NPC channel permeability. Moreover, we proved that these changes occurred much earlier than the final disassembly of the nuclear envelope and they are mediated by calcium overload. Is the increase of NPC leakiness the executioner of the excitotoxic process or simply a final event of a cell condemned to death? Here we speculate the consequence of the nucleoporin loss, the alteration of nucleocytoplasmic transport and their contribution to neuronal demise.

神经元变性期间的核孔复合体:破解最后一道屏障!

在真核细胞中,细胞核内的遗传物质和胞质溶胶之间的分子交换通过核孔复合体 (NPC) 进行,核孔复合体是一种大型的膜嵌入组件,由多个称为核孔蛋白的蛋白质组成,这些蛋白质围绕水通道排列。因子跨核膜的双向被动扩散和主动转运负责各种生物过程,它们分别受孔的大小和核孔蛋白与核细胞外蛋白之间的相互作用控制。因此,大多数退化程序通过改变 NPC 组成或核孔蛋白与对接因子之间的结合来诱导细胞应激,这并不奇怪。这有助于核 DNA 获得亲死亡因子,放大有害的级联反应,最终在核结构的分解中发挥作用。最近,我们已经表明,在钙介导的神经元变性过程中,NPC 成分可以降解,从而导致 NPC 通道通透性增加。此外,我们证明这些变化发生的时间远早于核膜的最终解体,并且它们是由钙超载介导的。NPC 泄漏的增加是兴奋毒性过程的刽子手,还是仅仅是细胞被判死刑的最终事件?在这里,我们推测核孔蛋白丢失的后果、核细胞质运输的改变及其对神经元死亡的贡献。我们已经表明,在钙介导的神经元变性过程中,NPC 成分会被降解,从而导致 NPC 通道通透性增加。此外,我们证明这些变化发生的时间远早于核膜的最终解体,并且它们是由钙超载介导的。NPC 泄漏的增加是兴奋毒性过程的刽子手,还是仅仅是细胞被判死刑的最终事件?在这里,我们推测核孔蛋白丢失的后果、核细胞质运输的改变及其对神经元死亡的贡献。我们已经表明,在钙介导的神经元变性过程中,NPC 成分会被降解,从而导致 NPC 通道通透性增加。此外,我们证明这些变化发生的时间远早于核膜的最终解体,并且它们是由钙超载介导的。NPC 泄漏的增加是兴奋毒性过程的刽子手,还是仅仅是细胞被判死刑的最终事件?在这里,我们推测核孔蛋白丢失的后果、核细胞质运输的改变及其对神经元死亡的贡献。NPC 泄漏的增加是兴奋毒性过程的刽子手,还是仅仅是细胞被判死刑的最终事件?在这里,我们推测核孔蛋白丢失的后果、核细胞质运输的改变及其对神经元死亡的贡献。NPC 泄漏的增加是兴奋毒性过程的刽子手,还是仅仅是细胞被判死刑的最终事件?在这里,我们推测核孔蛋白丢失的后果、核细胞质运输的改变及其对神经元死亡的贡献。
