Abstract
Schwann cells, the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), are critical for myelin development, maintenance, and repair. Rac1 is a known regulator of radial sorting, a key step in developmental myelination, and we previously showed in zebrafish that loss of Dock1, a Rac1-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor, results in delayed peripheral myelination in development. We demonstrate here that Dock1 is necessary for myelin maintenance and remyelination after injury in adult zebrafish. Furthermore, it performs an evolutionary conserved role in mice, acting cell-autonomously in Schwann cells to regulate peripheral myelin development, maintenance, and repair. Additionally, manipulating Rac1 levels in larval zebrafish reveals that dock1 mutants are sensitized to inhibition of Rac1, suggesting an interaction between the two proteins during PNS development. We propose that the interplay between Dock1 and Rac1 signaling in Schwann cells is required to establish, maintain, and facilitate repair and remyelination within the peripheral nervous system.

Abstract
Dementia is defined as memory loss and other cognitive decline and it severely influences daily life. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. Dedicator of cytokinesis 8 (DOCK8) is reported to be involved in neurological diseases. The present study focused on investigating the role that DOCK8 serves in AD and addressing its hidden regulatory mechanism. Initially, Aβ1-42 (Aβ) was applied for the administration of BV2 cells. Subsequently, the mRNA and protein expression levels of DOCK8 were evaluated utilizing reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and western blotting. After the DOCK8 silencing, immunofluorescence staining (IF), ELISA, wound healing and Transwell assays were applied to assess ionized calcium binding adapter molecule-1 (IBA-1) expression, release of inflammatory factors, migration and invasion in Aβ-induced BV2 cells. IF was used to evaluate cluster of differentiation (CD)11b expression. RT-qPCR and western blotting were to analyze the levels of M1 cell markers inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and CD86. The expression of STAT3/NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3)/NF-κB signaling-related proteins were determined by western blotting. Finally, the viability and apoptosis in hippocampal HT22 cells with DOCK8 depletion were estimated. Results revealed that Aβ induction greatly stimulated the expression levels of IBA-1 and DOCK8. DOCK8 silencing suppressed Aβ-induced inflammation, migration and invasion of BV2 cells. Additionally, DOCK8 deficiency conspicuously decreased the expression levels of CD11b, iNOS and CD86. The expression of phosphorylated (p-)STAT3, NLRP3, ASC, caspase1 and p-p65 was downregulated in Aβ-induced BV2 cells after DOCK8 depletion. STAT3 activator Colivelin reversed the effects of DOCK8 knockdown on IBA-1 expression, inflammation, migration, invasion and M1 cell polarization. In addition, the viability and apoptosis in hippocampal HT22 cells stimulated by neuroinflammatory release of BV2 cells were repressed following DOCK8 deletion. Collectively, DOCK8 interference alleviated Aβ-induced damage of BV2 cells by inhibiting STAT3/NLRP3/NF-κB signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noncatalytic region of tyrosine kinase 1 (NCK1) plays a key role in extracellular matrix degradation, which is required for the metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, the role NCK1 plays in the metastatic progression of TNBC is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Based on online databases, NCK1 was found to be highly expressed in TNBC as compared to normal breast-like subjects, which was also confirmed using TNBC cells and a tissue microarray. NCK1 expression gradually decreased with increased tumor stage. High NCK1 expression displayed a poor prognosis in lymph node-positive metastatic TNBC patients, but not in lymph node-negative patients. Using transwell assays and immunoblotting, we confirmed that NCK1 overexpression promoted, while NCK1 downregulation inhibited migration capabilities, as well as the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP2/9), uridylyl phosphate adenosine, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in TNBC cells. Mechanistically, NCK1 upregulation mediated the activation of MMP2/9 through ERK1/2 activity. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was positively correlated with NCK1. STAT3 could directly bind to the promoter region of NCK1 to promote its expression and was accompanied by the elevation of MMP2/9 and ERK1/2 signaling, which were partially abolished by the knockdown of NCK1 in TNBC cells. CONCLUSIONS NCK1 may serve as a diagnostic and prognostic marker of metastatic TNBC. STAT3 upregulation promoted the expression of NCK1, which subsequently induced the migration and activity of MMPs in a ERK1/2 signaling-dependent manner in TNBC cells. NCK1 is a promising target for improving TNBC migration.

DOCK8-related Immunodeficiency Syndrome (DIDS): Report of Novel Mutations in Iranian Patients. J Mol Neurosci 2021; 71:2456-2461. [PMID: 33948880 DOI: 10.1007/s12031-021-01843-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
DOCK8 immunodeficiency syndrome (DIDS) is a rare autosomal recessive (AR) disorder characterized by elevated serum IgE levels, eosinophilia, recurrent cutaneous infections, severe eczema, and sinopulmonary and gastrointestinal infections. This syndrome is a multisystem disease that is associated with both immune deficiency and neurological complications. In this study, we describe the clinical characteristics of two Iranian patients with DOCK8 deficiency and propose possible mechanisms for this condition. By using whole exome sequencing (WES), we identified two novel mutations, namely c.3233_3234del AG (p.Q1078fs) in exon 6 and a large deletion with 94 kb (c.405-3231 deletion, p.K135fs), in these two patients. These variations are confirmed with Sanger sequencing and CGH array. Subsequent co-segregation analysis is performed to identify inheritance patterns. Both patients were homozygote and their parents were heterozygote for the variations. For further investigation, prediction tools were applied to identify the pathogenicity of the variations and also for modeling the truncated proteins. The patients did not show neurological abnormalities associated with a deficiency of the N terminal region of DOCK8. The absence of neurological complications in the first patient is justifiable due to the maintenance of the proline-rich region in DOCK8, but for the second patient with expanded deletion which is almost like null DOCK8 protein, it is not presumable, pointing to the fact that the C terminal region of the protein might have functions in the proliferation and migration neurons in the peripheral nervous system. Alternatively, it is possible that neurological abnormalities follow an age-dependent pattern, leading to the appearance of related symptoms later in life. Further multiple functional studies are needed to model different identified variants in animal models to confirm our results and suggest possible mechanisms associated with DOCK8 deficiency in this study.

Abstract
Duplications of the distal region of the short arm of chromosome 9 are rare, but are associated with learning disabilities and behavioral disturbances. We report in detail the cognitive and language features of a child with a duplication in the 9p24.3 region, arr[hg19] 9p24.3(266,045-459,076)×3. The proband exhibits marked expressive and receptive problems, which affect both structural and functional aspects of language. These problems might result from a severe underlying deficit in working memory. Regarding the molecular causes of the observed symptoms, they might result from the altered expression of selected genes involved in procedural learning, particularly some of components of the SLIT/ROBO/FOXP2 network, strongly related to the development and evolution of language. Dysregulation of specific components of this network can result in turn from an altered interaction between DOCK8, affected by the microduplication, and CDC42, acting as the hub component of the network encompassing language-related genes.

Abstract
Patient-derived cancer 3D models are a promising tool that will revolutionize personalized cancer therapy but that require previous knowledge of optimal cell growth conditions and the most advantageous parameters to evaluate biomimetic relevance and monitor therapy efficacy. This study aims to establish general guidelines on 3D model characterization phenomena, focusing on neuroblastoma. We generated gelatin-based scaffolds with different stiffness and performed SK-N-BE(2) and SH-SY5Y aggressive neuroblastoma cell cultures, also performing co-cultures with mouse stromal Schwann cell line (SW10). Model characterization by digital image analysis at different time points revealed that cell proliferation, vitronectin production, and migration-related gene expression depend on growing conditions and are specific to the tumor cell line. Morphometric data show that 3D in vitro models can help generate optimal patient-derived cancer models, by creating, identifying, and choosing patterns of clinically relevant artificial microenvironments to predict patient tumor cell behavior and therapeutic responses.

Abstract
Vertebrate nervous system function requires glial cells, including myelinating glia that insulate axons and provide trophic support that allows for efficient signal propagation by neurons. In vertebrate peripheral nervous systems, neural crest-derived glial cells known as Schwann cells (SCs) generate myelin by encompassing and iteratively wrapping membrane around single axon segments. SC gliogenesis and neurogenesis are intimately linked and governed by a complex molecular environment that shapes their developmental trajectory. Changes in this external milieu drive developing SCs through a series of distinct morphological and transcriptional stages from the neural crest to a variety of glial derivatives, including the myelinating sublineage. Cues originate from the extracellular matrix, adjacent axons, and the developing SC basal lamina to trigger intracellular signaling cascades and gene expression changes that specify stages and transitions in SC development. Here, we integrate the findings from in vitro neuron-glia co-culture experiments with in vivo studies investigating SC development, particularly in zebrafish and mouse, to highlight critical factors that specify SC fate. Ultimately, we connect classic biochemical and mutant studies with modern genetic and visualization tools that have elucidated the dynamics of SC development. This article is categorized under: Signaling Pathways > Cell Fate Signaling Nervous System Development > Vertebrates: Regional Development.

Abstract
Background In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), specialized glial cells called Schwann cells produce myelin, a lipid-rich insulating sheath that surrounds axons and promotes rapid action potential propagation. During development, Schwann cells must undergo extensive cytoskeletal rearrangements in order to become mature, myelinating Schwann cells. The intracellular mechanisms that drive Schwann cell development, myelination, and accompanying cell shape changes are poorly understood. Methods Through a forward genetic screen in zebrafish, we identified a mutation in the atypical guanine nucleotide exchange factor, dock1, that results in decreased myelination of peripheral axons. Rescue experiments and complementation tests with newly engineered alleles confirmed that mutations in dock1 cause defects in myelination of the PNS. Whole mount in situ hybridization, transmission electron microscopy, and live imaging were used to fully define mutant phenotypes. Results We show that Schwann cells in dock1 mutants can appropriately migrate and are not decreased in number, but exhibit delayed radial sorting and decreased myelination during early stages of development. Conclusions Together, our results demonstrate that mutations in dock1 result in defects in Schwann cell development and myelination. Specifically, loss of dock1 delays radial sorting and myelination of peripheral axons in zebrafish.

Abstract
Spectacular progress has been made in the characterization of human hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES) over the last 50 years. HIES is a primary immunodeficiency defined as an association of atopy in a context of very high serum IgE levels, characteristic bacterial and fungal diseases, low-level clinical and biological inflammation, and various non-hematopoietic developmental manifestations. Somewhat arbitrarily, three disorders were successively put forward as the underlying cause of HIES: autosomal dominant (AD) STAT3 deficiency, the only disorder corresponding to the original definition of HIES, and autosomal recessive (AR) DOCK8 and PGM3 deficiencies, in which atopy and high serum IgE levels occur in a context of manifestations not seen in patients with typical HIES. Indeed, these three disorders disrupt different molecular pathways, affect different cell types, and underlie different clinical phenotypes. Surprisingly, several other inherited inborn errors of immunity in which serum IgE levels are high, sometimes almost as high as those in HIES patients, are not considered to belong to the HIES group of diseases. Studies of HIES have been further complicated by the lack of a high serum IgE phenotype in all mouse models of the disease other than two Stat3 mutant strains. The study of infections in mutant mice has helped elucidate only some forms of HIES and infection. Mouse models of these conditions have also been used to study non-hematopoietic phenotypes for STAT3 deficiency, tissue-specific immunity for DOCK8 deficiency, and cell lineage maturation for PGM3 deficiency. We review here the history of the field of HIES since the first clinical description of this condition in 1966, together with the three disorders commonly referred to as HIES, focusing, in particular, on their mouse models. We propose the restriction of the term "HIES" to patients with an AD STAT3-deficiency phenotype, including the most recently described AR ZNF341 deficiency, thus excluding AR DOCK8 and PGM3 deficiencies from the definition of this disease.

Abstract
Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system wrap around large diameter axons to form the myelin sheath, that contains one axon. Schwann cells also wrap around small diameter axons to form the Remak bundle, that contains many axons. Neuregulin-1 (NRG1) type III binds Schwann cell plasma membrane ErbB2/3 receptor to regulate morphological changes of Schwann cells. Herein we provide the data on the effect of NRG1 type III knockout (Miyamoto et al., 2017) [1] on the Remak bundle structure. Since complete knockout mice of NRG1type III are embryonically lethal, we have usedNRG1type III (+/−) mice's sciatic nerves in these experiments.

Abstract
The most widely used method (Brockes' method) for preparing primary Schwann cell culture uses neonatal rat sciatic nerves as the primary source of Schwann cells. The procedure is relatively simple and yields a highly purified population of Schwann cells in a short period of time. The method has also been used to prepare Schwann cells from mice, however, with limitation. For example, Brockes' method is not applicable when the genotypes of mouse neonates are unknown or if the mouse mutants do not develop to term. We described a method ideal for preparing Schwann cells in a transgenic/knockout mouse study. The method uses embryonic dorsal root ganglia as the primary source of Schwann cells and allows preparing separate, highly purified Schwann cell cultures from individual mouse embryos in less than 2 weeks.
