The sodium-proton exchanger NHE6 contributes to proper endosomal acidification. NHE6 mutations are also linked to autism-related disorders. In this issue of Neuron, using NHE6-knockout mice, Ouyang et al. (2013) uncover how dysregulation of endosomal pH leads to disturbances in BDNF signaling and neuronal morphogenesis defects.
钠-质子交换器 NHE6 有助于内体的正常酸化。NHE6 突变也与自闭症相关疾病有关。在本期《神经元》杂志中,Ouyang 等人(2013)使用 NHE6 敲除小鼠揭示了内体 pH 失调如何导致 BDNF 信号转导紊乱和神经元形态发生缺陷。
