Identification of UBE3A Protein in CSF and Extracellular Space of the Hippocampus Suggest a Potential Novel Function in Synaptic Plasticity

Abstract: Disruptions to the maternally inherited allele UBE3A, encoding for an E3 ubiquitin ligase, leads to the manifestation of Angelman Syndrome (AS). While this disorder is rare, the symptoms are severe and lifelong including but not limited to: intractable seizures, abnormal EEG's, ataxic gait, lack of speech, and most notably an abnormally happy demeanor with easily provoked laughter. Currently, little is known about the neurophysiological underpinnings of UBE3A leading to such globally severe phenotypes. Utilizi… Show more

“…The ChP comprises the brain tissue that produces CSF. Recent human clinical studies also suggest a link between UBE3A and CSF 29,30 . UBE3A has been detected in CSF 30 , and individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (which has high comorbidity with AS) exhibit increased extra-axial CSF production 29 .…”

“…Recent human clinical studies also suggest a link between UBE3A and CSF 29,30 . UBE3A has been detected in CSF 30 , and individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (which has high comorbidity with AS) exhibit increased extra-axial CSF production 29 . Given this set of experimental and clinical observations, we performed additional experiments to better characterize the phenotypes associated with complete loss of UBE3A as well as identify what phenotypes might arise in organoids generated from a clinically relevant genotype, H9 UBE3A m-/p+ .…”
