The AP-1 Transcription Factor c-Jun Is Required for Efficient Axonal Regeneration

Abstract: Nerve injury triggers numerous changes in the injured neurons and surrounding nonneuronal cells that ultimately result in successful target reinnervation or cell death. c-Jun is a component of the heterodimeric AP-1 transcription factor, and c-Jun is highly expressed in response to neuronal trauma. Here we have investigated the role of c-jun during axonal regeneration using mice lacking c-jun in the central nervous system. After transection of the facial nerve, the absence of c-Jun caused severe defects in sev… Show more

“…These key networks cover the most important pathways that play important roles in regulating this differential gene expression through mainly biological GO processes during WD after sciatic nerve injury. The data shown here are consistent with published reports [15][16][17] and supported the conclusion that developing and regenerating peripheral nerves exhibit differences in genetic programs. Further, the data revealed that signal transducers were significantly regulated in the lesioned distal stump after sciatic nerve injury.…”

“…Further, the data revealed that signal transducers were significantly regulated in the lesioned distal stump after sciatic nerve injury. The molecules that were significantly up-or down-regulated after such injury are known to modulate the signal pathways in key networks [15,[29][30][31][32] . It is supposed that the key networks play roles in Schwann cell activation and proliferation as well as WD and subsequent regeneration [33][34][35] .…”

“…Moreover, hippocampal granule cell proliferation is increased by activation of cAMP signaling and reduced by CREB inhibition [148], and combined disruption of CREB and CREM leads to neurodegeneration in the hippocampus and in the dorsolateral striatum [121].

ATF2 is also found in the human hippocampus and its expression is reduced in patients with Parkinson´s and Alzheimer´s disease [89].…”

“…In conditionally c-Jun null mice, axon regeneration of facial nerve was significantly delayed (Raivich et al 2004). In contrast, lack of c-Jun in neurons had little effect on axon growth during development, suggesting that c-Jun specifically regulates regenerative axon growth (Raivich et al 2004).…”
