Neurofilaments (NF), the intermediate filaments of the neuronal cytoskeleton, provide mechanical stability to the cell. High-molecular-weight NF (NFH) comprises a heavily phosphorylated carboxyl terminal (“sidearm”) domain which helps determine interfilament spacing distances. Experimental evidence suggests that dephosphorylation greatly increases the rate and extent of proteolysis of NFH. Because...
The resulting neuropathological degeneration that occurs following a traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a consequence of both immediate and secondary neurochemical sequelae. Proteolysis of cytoskeletal proteins, triggered by calcium-mediated events, is believed to be a particularly significant contributor to TBI-induced neuronal death. To date, efforts to associate cytoskeletal degradation and neurodegeneration...
