Ski regulates proliferation and migration of reactive astrocytes induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) through PI3K/Akt pathway
Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide. Reactive astrogliosis, a typical feature of SCI, undergoes various molecular and morphological changes and contributes to glial scar formation, which impedes axonal regeneration. Ski is a novel molecule that regulates the biological characteristics of astrocytes after spinal cord injury, but its function and the exact mechanism of its overexpression in reactive astrocyte proliferation and migration after SCI remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the effect and mechanism of Ski on the proliferation and migration of reactive astrocytes, and to regulate the spatiotemporal formation of glial scars after SCI. In an in vitro lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced astrocyte injury model, the expression of Ski was upregulated in a time-dependent manner in LPS-induced astrocytes, and the upregulation of Ski was accompanied by that of PCNA, CDK4, CyclinD1, and other proliferation-related proteins. Our findings suggest that Ski promotes the proliferation and migration of reactive astrocytes. Next, astrocytes were transfected with a specific lentivirus to cause the overexpression of Ski, which significantly enhanced the proliferation and migration of reactive astrocytes and LPS-induced activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway. The PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitor LY294002 significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of LPS-induced reactive astrocytes after Ski overexpression. In conclusion, Ski r…

PI3K-Akt signaling can regulate actin activity and is important in astrocyte proliferation and migration.
“It has been suggested that PI3K-Akt signaling can regulate actin activity and is important in astrocyte proliferation and migration (Zhao et al., 2017;Liao et al., 2022;Pérez-Núñez et al., 2023).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
