摘要:

Netrin-1及其受体在神经元发育过程中诱导轴突生长和神经元迁移方面发挥着至关重要的作用。此外,其影响还延伸到成年,如参与神经元存活和突触功能维持等。此次综述回顾了Netrin-1信号通路在神经退行性病变和癌症中的作用机制。越来越多的证据说明,Netrin-1水平下调可加剧阿尔茨海默病和帕金森病动物模型的经病理进展,类似的变化也可能发生在人类中。Netrin-1受体的基因突变能增加对神经退行性疾病的易感性。针对Netrin-1及其受体的疗法在增强记忆和运动功能方面取得了积极的成果。Netrin-1及其受体也在多种癌症中表现出遗传和表观遗传学改变。这些发现证明了Netrin-1及其受体是神经退行性疾病领域的关键靶点。

Abstract: Netrin-1 and its receptors play crucial roles in inducing axonal growth and neuronal migration during neuronal development. Their profound impacts then extend into adulthood to encompass the maintenance of neuronal survival and synaptic function. Increasing amounts of evidence highlight several key points: (1) Diminished Netrin- 1 levels exacerbate pathological progression in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, and potentially, similar alterations occur in humans. (2) Genetic mutations of Netrin-1 receptors increase an individuals’ susceptibility to neurodegenerative disorders. (3) Therapeutic approaches targeting Netrin-1 and its receptors offer the benefits of enhancing memory and motor function. (4) Netrin-1 and its receptors show genetic and epigenetic alterations in a variety of cancers. These findings provide compelling evidence that Netrin-1 and its receptors are crucial targets in neurodegenerative diseases. Through a comprehensive review of Netrin-1 signaling pathways, our objective is to uncover potential therapeutic avenues for neurodegenerative disorders.
