The axon initial segment (AIS) is a highly specialized compartment in neurons that resides between axonal and somatodendritic domains. localization of the AIS proximal part essential for its two major functions: generating modulating action potentials maintaining neuron polarity. Recent findings revealed incredibly stable generated from dynamic components can undergo extensive structural functional changes response to alterations activity levels. These activity-dependent structure function have profound consequences neuronal functioning, plasticity has emerged as key regulator network homeostasis. This review highlights functions AIS, architecture, how organization remodeling are influenced by developmental both acute chronic adaptations. It also discusses mechanisms underlying these processes explores dysregulated may contribute brain disorders.

Axons experience physical stress throughout an organism's lifetime, and disruptions in axonal integrity are hallmarks of both neurodegenerative diseases traumatic injuries. The spectrin-based membrane periodic skeleton (MPS) is proposed to have a crucial role maintaining strength, flexibility, resilience. To investigate the importance intrinsic MPS for GABAergic motor neuron C. elegans , we employed auxin-inducible degron system degrade β-spectrin/UNC-70 cell-type specific time-dependent manner. Degradation β-spectrin from all neurons beginning at larval development resulted widespread axon breakage regeneration VD/DD adult animals. Similarly, targeted degradation GABA alone extensive breakage. Moreover, found that depleting mature nervous also induced breaks. By contrast, epidermal was not required neurons. These findings demonstrate cell-intrinsic neuronal during adulthood.

In mammalian axon-carrying–dendrite (AcD) neurons, the axon emanates from a basal dendrite, instead of soma, to create privileged route for action potential generation at initial segment (AIS). However, it is unclear how such unusual morphology established and whether structure function AIS in AcD neurons are preserved. By using dissociated hippocampal cultures as model, we show that development can occur prior synaptogenesis independently vivo environment. A single precursor neurite first gives rise then AcD. The possesses similar cytoskeletal architecture soma-derived similarly functions trafficking barrier retain axon-specific molecular composition. does not undergo homeostatic plasticity, contains lesser cisternal organelles, receives fewer inhibitory inputs. Our findings reveal insights into neuron biology underscore structural differences based on onset.

Abstract Amongst the different clathrin structures in mammalian cells, bi-layered coat colocalizing with endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-0 remains one of most ambiguous. Despite being observed first time twenty years ago, their structure and how they are assembled unknown. Here, we reconstituted vitro ESCRT-0 assembly onto various types membranes. The protein HRS, a known adaptor on endosomes, was found to form condensates. These condensates spread into thin layer PI(3)P-rich Platinum replica electron microscopy revealed that, surprisingly, depending HRS phase. Protein droplets recruited as dense, curved lattice, many cage-like structures. On two-dimensional condensates, dense flat assembly. Two-dimensional HRS-clathrin promoted clustering cholesterol underlying membrane, while enhanced PI(3)P- dependent recruitment membrane. free-standing membranes, membrane flattening. Overall, these results show that two- dimensional condensate creates unique cargo molecules, defining new mechanism trafficking processes.
