Reelin-mediated Signaling Locally Regulates Protein Kinase B/Akt and Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3β
Open accessAbstract
Reelin is a large secreted protein that controls cortical layering by signaling through the very low density lipoprotein receptor and apolipoprotein E receptor 2, thereby inducing tyrosine phosphorylation of the adaptor protein Disabled-1 (Dab1) and suppressing tau phosphorylation in vivo. Here we show that binding of Reelin to these receptors stimulates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, resulting in activation of protein kinase B and inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta. We present genetic evidence that this cascade is dependent on apolipoprotein E receptor 2, very low density lipoprotein receptor, and Dab1. Reelin-signaling components are enriched in axonal growth cones, where tyrosine phosphorylation of Dab1 is increased in response to Reelin. These findings suggest that Reelin-mediated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling in neuronal growth cones contributes to final neuron positioning in the mammalian brain by local modulation of protein kinase B and glycogen synthase kinase 3beta kinase activities.

Reelin's effects are related to its ability to interact with ApoER2 and VLDLR, inducing their clustering, which results in Dab1 phosphorylation and activation of different effectors.
“These effects are related to reelin's ability to interact with ApoER2 and VLDLR, inducing their clustering [76], which results in Dab1 phosphorylation and the activation of different effectors [52], [77], [78].”
From Sorting nexin 17 regulates ApoER2 recycling and reelin signaling (2014) · cites this paper as [52]
The introduction states that Reelin binds ApoER2 and VLDLR and induces Dab1 phosphorylation; the Discussion reports downstream PI3K and PKB signaling. Our copy does not say that Reelin induces receptor clustering, so that step in the claimed mechanism is not supported. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredKnockout of both ApoER2 and VLDLR proteins is required to prevent reelin-induced phosphorylation of Dab1.
“In fact, it has been shown that knockout of both ApoER2 and VLDLR proteins is required to prevent reelin-induced phosphorylation of Dab1 [52], suggesting that both proteins could be altered in SNX17 knockdown cells.”

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.
