Current Understanding of the Role of Neuronal Calcium Sensor 1 in Neurological Disorders.
Molecular Neurobiology 2019 Februrary 5
Neuronal calcium sensor 1 (NCS-1) is a high-affinity calcium-binding protein and its ubiquitous expression in the nervous system implies a wide range of functions. To date, it has been implicated in regulation of calcium channels in both axonal growth cones and presynaptic terminals, pre- and postsynaptic plasticity mechanisms, learning and memory behaviors, dopaminergic signaling, and axonal regeneration. This review summarizes these functions and relates them to several diseases in which NCS-1 plays a role, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, X-linked mental retardation and fragile X syndrome, and spinal cord injury. Many questions remain unanswered about the role of NCS-1 in these diseases, particularly as the genetic factors that control NCS-1 expression in both normal and diseased states are still poorly understood. The review further identifies the therapeutic potential of manipulating the interaction of NCS-1 with its many targets and suggests directions for future research on the role of NCS-1 in these disorders.
