In recent years, increasing evidence regarding the functional importance of lipid droplets (LDs), cytoplasmic storage organelles in central nervous system (CNS), has emerged. Although not abundantly present CNS under normal conditions adulthood, LDs accumulate during development and aging, as well some neurologic disorders. are actively involved cellular turnover stress response. By regulating excess fatty acids, cholesterol, ceramides addition to their subsequent release response cell needs and/or environmental stressors, energy production, synthesis membranes signaling molecules, protection cells against lipotoxicity free radicals. Accumulation appears predominantly neuroglia (astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells), which provide trophic, metabolic, immune support neuronal networks. Here we review most findings on characteristics functions neuroglia, focusing astrocytes, key homeostasis-providing CNS. We discuss molecular mechanisms affecting LD how this may protect neural function. also highlight role (and potential contribution) neuroglial aging

ABSTRACT In the adult rodent brain, neural stem cells (NSCs) persist in ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ) and subgranular (SGZ), which are specialized niches young neurons for olfactory bulb (OB) hippocampus, respectively, generated. Recent studies have significantly modified earlier views on mechanisms of NSC self-renewal neurogenesis brain. Here, we discuss molecular control, heterogeneity, regional specification cell division modes V-SVZ NSCs, draw comparisons with NSCs SGZ. We highlight how regulated by local signals from their immediate neighbors, as well neurotransmitters factors that secreted distant neurons, choroid plexus vasculature. also review recent advances single RNA analyses reveal complexity neurogenesis. These findings set stage a better understanding neurogenesis, process one day may inspire new approaches to brain repair.

Motile cilia are miniature, propeller-like extensions, emanating from many cell types across the body. Their coordinated beating generates a directional fluid flow, which is essential for various biological processes, respiration to reproduction. In nervous system, ependymal cells extend their motile into brain ventricles and contribute cerebrospinal (CSF) flow. Although not only contributors CSF functioning crucial, as patients with defects develop clinical features, like hydrocephalus scoliosis. flow was suggested primarily deliver nutrients remove waste, but recent studies emphasized its role in development function. Nevertheless, it remains poorly understood how ciliary organizes fulfill these roles. Here, we study of larval zebrafish. We identified that different populations ciliated spatially organized generate powered by beating. Our investigations revealed confined within individual ventricular cavities, little exchange between ventricles, despite pulsatile displacement caused heartbeat. Interestingly, our results showed boundaries supporting this compartmentalized abolished during bodily movement, highlighting multiple physiological processes regulate hydrodynamics Finally, perturbing reduces hydrodynamic coupling disrupts development. propose motile-cilia-generated crucial regulating distribution ventricles.

Lipid droplets are dynamic intracellular lipid storage organelles that respond to the physiological state of cells. In addition controlling cell metabolism, they play a protective role for many cellular stressors, including oxidative stress. Despite prior descriptions appearing in brain as early century ago, only recently has cells found begun be understood. droplet functions have now been described nervous system context development, aging, and an increasing number neuropathologies. Here, we review basic mechanisms formation, turnover, function discuss how these enable different types under healthy pathological conditions.

The neuroscience community has witnessed a tremendous expansion of glia research. Glial cells are now on center stage with leading roles in the development, maturation, and physiology brain circuits. Over course evolution, have highly diversified include radial glia, astroglia or astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells, each having dedicated functions brain. zebrafish, small teleost fish, is no exception to this recent evidences point evolutionarily conserved for development its nervous system. Due size, transparency, genetic amenability, zebrafish become an increasingly prominent animal model It enabled study neural circuits from individual entire brains, precision unmatched other vertebrate models. Moreover, high neurogenic regenerative potential attracted lot attention research focusing stem neurodegenerative diseases.

Motile cilia are miniature, whip-like organelles whose beating generates a directional fluid flow. The flow generated by ciliated epithelia is subject of great interest, as defective ciliary motility results in severe human diseases called motile ciliopathies. Despite the abundance diverse organs including nervous system, their role organ development and homeostasis remains poorly understood.

Posttranscriptional gene expression including splicing, RNA transport, translation, and decay provides an important regulatory layer in many if not all molecular pathways. Research the last decades has positioned RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) right center of posttranscriptional regulation. Here, we propose interdependent networks RBPs to regulate complex pathways within central nervous system (CNS). These are involved multiple aspects neuronal development functioning, higher cognition.
