Distinct target-derived signals organize formation, maturation, and maintenance of motor nerve terminals. Cell 129 (2007) 179-193. The authors were the first to demonstrate that NC1 domains of collagen IV influence nerve terminal assembly and maintenance. Moreover, the authors demonstrate that laminin β2 and the FGF7 subfamily also contribute to presynaptic differentiation, and that all three sets of presynaptic organizers act sequentially to form and maintain nerve terminals at the NMJ.

Gliomedin mediates Schwann cell-axon interaction and the molecular assembly of the nodes of Ranvier. Neuron 47 (2005) 215-229. The authors identify gliomedin, a Schwann cell-derived collagen-like ligand for neurofascin and NrCAM at peripheral nodes of Ranvier. In vitro experiments demonstrate gliomedin is necessary and sufficient for node formation.

The classical complement cascade mediates CNS synapse elimination. Cell 131 (2007) 1164-1178. This study reveals a novel role for complement C1q in synapse elimination in the mammalian CNS. Although neuronal C1q is normally downregulated after periods of synaptic refinement, this study reveals C1q expression is upregulated in early stages of glaucoma. Re-expression of C1q in the adult nervous system may therefore contribute to synaptic (and perhaps neuronal) loss associated with glaucoma.

The authors show roles for both collagen XVIII and LH3 in motor axon outgrowth in a vertebrate nervous system. Interestingly, the authors map the activity necessary for axon outgrowth to the glycosyltranserase activity of the lh3 gene (and not LH3 activity). Not only were these the first studies to document these molecules in vertebrate neural development in vivo, but they were also the first to show that specific glycosyltransferase modifications influence axonal growth.

This study reveals a role for a collagen IV-rich ECM in targeting and confining retinal arbors to specific layers of the vertebrate tectum. Interestingly, the ECM that contains this vital collagen IV network lies outside the CNS. Therefore, non-neural tissues are necessary to actively confine retinal arbors to their targets within the CNS.
