项目摘要
The axonal transport system is known to play a key role in maintaining the
structural and functional integrity of axons. A defective axonal transport
system may contribute to the etiology of certain nerve degenerative
diseases and peripheral neuropathies associated with exposure to neurotoxic
chemicals. Although much information on the transport of axonal
constituents (especially proteins) has been obtained using radioactive
tracer techniques, the structural and molecular bases axonal transport
remain elusive.
Recently, we reported the discovery of a microtubule (MT)-associated
"coupler" in axons. This structure links MTs to other cytoskeletal
components as well as to various types of membrane-bound organelles (MBOs)
and redistributes so as to remain associated with MTs in axons treated with
B,B'-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN). These findings along with those of
previous studies suggest that couplers are involved in the generation of
motive forces for fast axonal transport. The main objectives of the
proposed study are to further our understanding of (1) the structure,
composition and function of couplers in axons and (2) the relationship of
couplers to cytoskeletal elements during nerve growth and axonal
transport. The following major approaches are planned: (1) More rapid and
improved fixation methods will be used to reveal structures that
participate in axonal transport. (2) Segregation of MTs and neurofilaments
induced with B,B"-iminodipropionitrile will be used as a model system to
study the individual roles of MTs, NFs and couplers in nerve growth and
axonal transport. (3) Correlated time-lapse cinemicrography and electron
microscopy will be used to relate directly variations in the nerve growth
rate with changes in the number and distribution of couplers and the
organizational state of the axonal cytoskeleton. (4) Immunocytochemical
techniques will be used to examine the composition of couplers.
The studies will help elucidate the structural and molecular bases of nerve
growth and axonal transport which, in turn, will shed new light on the
underlying causes of axonopathies associated with certain neurotoxic and
nerve degenerative diseases which may be due, at least in part, to a
defective axonal transport system.
