MKK4 and MKK7 control degeneration of retinal ganglion cell somas and axons after glaucoma-relevant injury.

Olivia J. Marola, Stephanie B. Syc‐Mazurek, Sarah E. R. Yablonski, Peter G. Shrager, Simon W. M. John, Richard T. Libby

This study shows MKK4 and MKK7 drive RGC soma and axon degeneration after glaucoma injury, while DDIT3/JUN only prevent soma loss but not axon degeneration.

Neuronal protein phosphatase 1β regulates glutamate release, cortical myelination, node of Ranvier formation, and action potential propagation in the optic nerve

Cody McKee, Karl Foley, Katherine M. Andersh, Olivia J. Marola, Brian E. Wadzinski, Richard T. Libby, Peter G. Shrager, Houhui Xia

This study investigates the role of PP1β in neuronal function by deleting it in mice, revealing its impact on myelination, glutamate release, and action potential propagation.

Nuclear inhibitor of protein phosphatase 1 (NIPP1) regulates CNS tau phosphorylation and myelination during development

Cody McKee, Peter G. Shrager, Arindam Ghosh Mazumder, Archan Ganguly, Abigail Mayer, Karl Foley, Nancy Ward, Margaret Youngman, Hailong Hou, Houhui Xia

This study shows that NIPP1 in neural precursor cells regulates tau phosphorylation and myelination, with loss of NIPP1 causing developmental impairments and myelin deficits.
