Inflammation and dysregulation of the immune system are hallmarks of several neurodegenerative diseases. An activated immune response is considered to be the cause of myelin breakdown in demyelinating disorders. In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), myelin can be degraded in an autophagy-dependent manner directly by Schwann cells or by macrophages, which are modulated by T-lymphocytes. Here, we show that the NF-κB activator Pleckstrin homology containing family member 5 (Plekhg5) is involved in the regulation of both Schwann cell autophagy and recruitment of T-lymphocytes in peripheral nerves during motoneuron disease.

Plekhg5的缺乏导致髓鞘褶皱,对应于雪旺细胞自噬功能受损,以及T细胞向周围神经的浸润减少。
免疫系统的炎症和调节异常是几种神经退行性疾病的标志。活化的免疫应答被认为是脱髓鞘疾病中髓磷脂分解的原因。在周围神经系统(PNS)中,髓鞘磷脂可以直接被雪旺氏细胞或巨噬细胞以自噬依赖性方式降解,而雪旺氏细胞或巨噬细胞受T淋巴细胞的调节。在这里,我们显示包含运动神经元疾病期间,家族成员5(Plekhg5)的NF-κB激活素Pleckstrin同源性参与雪旺细胞自噬的调节和周围神经T淋巴细胞的募集。
