Aberrant responses to acoustic stimuli in mice deficient for neural recognition molecule NB‐2

Abstract: NB-2, a member of the contactin subgroup in the immunoglobulin superfamily, is expressed specifically in the postnatal nervous system, reaching a maximum level at 3 weeks postnatal. NB-2 displays neurite outgrowth-promoting activity in vitro. To assess its function in the nervous system, we generated mutant mice in which a part of the NB-2 gene was ablated and replaced with the tau-LacZ gene. The general appearance of NB-2-deficient mice and their gross anatomical features were normal. The LacZ expression patt… Show more

“…These similar phenotypes suggest that the physical association of PTPRG and CNTN6 may be important for acquiring proper motor functions. CNTN5 is expressed early postbirth and its expression is the strongest in regions involved in the auditory pathway, in particular in the cochlear nuclei (25,26). This localization of CNTN5 matches that of PTPRG (4), which is also found, at least at the embryonic stage, in the nuclei of the vestibulocochlear nerve responsible for carrying signals about hearing and balance.…”

“…The use of histogenetic techniques that involve transgenic targeting of marker proteins such as bacterial ␤-galactosidase enzyme or green fluorescent protein to report endogenous promoter activity has been widespread in developmental research and is becoming more common in anatomical and functional studies (Li et al, 2003;Hattar et al, 2006). This approach is especially useful for studying the anatomy of the nervous system, as various signal sequences can be added to target marker proteins selectively into nuclear, somatic, axonal, or dendritic compartments of neurons (Callahan and Thomas, 1994).…”

“…Всего описано шесть схожих по структуре генов контактинов, которые экспрессируются в основном в нейронах головного (Kleijer et al, 2015) и спинного мозга (Ashrafi et al, 2014) и регулируют образование синапсов между нейронами, обеспечивая различные аспекты нерв-ной деятельности. Контактин-5 экспрессируется главным образом в центральной нервной системе (Ogawa et al, 1996), а его максимальная экспрессия обнаруживается у эмбрионов мышей начиная с 16-го дня и на 2-й день после рождения (Li et al, 2003). Зоны наибольшей экспрессии в мозге -таламус, кортекс, хвостатое ядро и скорлупа.…”

“…Экспрессия Cntn5 начинается на поздних стадиях эмбрио-генеза и сохраняется после рождения. Единственный описанный нокаут по гену Cntn5 у мышей был получен в лаборатории K. Watanabe, в которой была создана транс-генная линия со вставкой кассеты tau-LacZ-neo после первого кодирующего экзона Cntn5, что привело к полной инактивации гена (Li et al, 2003). Данные, опублико-ванные этой группой ученых, характеризуют влияние нокаута на деятельность нервной системы, в частности на формирование слуховой системы (Li et al, 2003).…”
