The Role of CREB and CBP in Brain Function

Abstract: In this chapter, the various functions in the nervous system of the CRE-binding protein (CREB), its paralogues CREM and ATF1, and its co-activator the CREB-binding protein (CBP), are reviewed. A wide array of techniques, including mouse transgenesis, gene targeting, genome-wide analyses and behavioral and electrophysiological studies, have revealed an important role for the CREB activation pathway in different brain functions. These studies have clarified our understanding of the mechanisms whereby CREB activi… Show more

“…Many promoters of cAMP-responsive genes only contain a half-site TGACG sequence (Barco and Kandel, 2006), which is essential for biological activity (Fink et al, 1988). This same sequence found here in reverse orientation was shown to be a functional element.…”

“…CREB factors are critical in many important functions in the nervous system, including neurogenesis and neuronal survival, development, and differentiation, as well as neuroprotection, axonal outgrowth and regeneration, circadian rhythms, addiction, synaptic plasticity, and memory formation (24, 43, 60, 171, 177, 194, 219). …”

“…PKA directly phosphorylates and activates transcription factors such as the cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB), which in the brain mediates neuronal plasticity, long-term memory formation, neuronal survival and neurogenesis (Figure 2) [5]. In the past decade, Epac has emerged as an alternative cAMP sensor [6].…”

“…For example, like PKA, Epac can also activate CREB directly [9]. Interestingly, PKA signaling is often related to neuronal survival [5, 12, 16], whereas Epac activation can lead to oxidative stress and neuronal injury [12, 13] (Figure 2). The differential regulation of PKA and Epac by cAMP could be related to the gradient of cytoplasmic cAMP because cAMP has a lower affinity for Epac than for PKA [17], (i.e., cAMP initially stimulates PKA signaling at the beginning of EP2 receptor activation; with sustained EP2 activation the Epac pathway dominates as the cytoplasmic cAMP level continues rising).…”
