Shootin1 interacts with actin retrograde flow and L1-CAM to promote axon outgrowth
Open accessAbstract
Actin polymerizes near the leading edge of nerve growth cones, and actin filaments show retrograde movement in filopodia and lamellipodia. Linkage between actin filament retrograde flow and cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) in growth cones is thought to be one of the mechanisms for axon outgrowth and guidance. However, the molecular basis for this linkage remains elusive. Here, we show that shootin1 interacts with both actin filament retrograde flow and L1-CAM in axonal growth cones of cultured rat hippocampal neurons, thereby mediating the linkage between them. Impairing this linkage, either by shootin1 RNA interference or disturbing the interaction between shootin1 and actin filament flow, inhibited L1-dependent axon outgrowth, whereas enhancing the linkage by shootin1 overexpression promoted neurite outgrowth. These results strengthen the actin flow-CAM linkage model ("clutch" model) for axon outgrowth and suggest that shootin1 is a key molecule involved in this mechanism.

From Functional genomic screen and network analysis reveal novel modifiers of tauopathy dissociated from tau phosphorylation (2011) · cites this paper as [141]
The Results sections provided (page numbers unavailable) examine shootin1 and L1-dependent axon outgrowth in hippocampal neurons, not Nrg loss of function at synaptic terminals. Searches for Nrg/neuroglian and for reduced microtubules at synaptic terminals found no passage addressing the claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

“LOF of Nrg causes significant reduction in microtubules at synaptic terminals (140,141), and previous efforts have suggested that tau toxicity may be partially due to ‘hyperstabilization’ of microtubules (42); therefore, an increase in cytoskeletal instability caused by reduced Nrg in a tau-induced hyperstabilized env…”

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.
