Function

Required to induce the formation and stabilization of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) tubules (PubMed:24262037, PubMed:25612671, PubMed:27619977). They regulate membrane morphogenesis in the ER by promoting tubular ER production (PubMed:24262037, PubMed:25612671, PubMed:27619977, PubMed:27786289). They influence nuclear envelope expansion, nuclear pore complex formation and proper localization of inner nuclear membrane proteins (PubMed:26906412). However each isoform have specific functions mainly depending on their tissue expression specificities (Probable). Isoform A. Developmental neurite growth regulatory factor with a role as a negative regulator of axon-axon adhesion and growth, and as a facilitator of neurite branching. Regulates neurite fasciculation, branching and extension in the developing nervous system. Involved in down-regulation of growth, stabilization of wiring and restriction of plasticity in the adult CNS (PubMed:10667797, PubMed:11201742). Regulates the radial migration of cortical neurons via an RTN4R-LINGO1 containing receptor complex (By similarity). Acts as a negative regulator of central nervous system angiogenesis. Inhibits spreading, migration and sprouting of primary brain microvascular endothelial cells (MVECs). Also induces the retraction of MVECs lamellipodia and filopodia in a ROCK pathway-dependent manner (By similarity). Isoform B. Mainly function in endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells, is also involved in immune system regulation (Probable). Modulator of vascular remodeling, promotes the migration of endothelial cells but inhibits the migration of vascular smooth muscle cells. Regulates endothelial sphingolipid biosynthesis with direct effects on vascular function and blood pressure. Inhibits serine palmitoyltransferase, SPTLC1, the rate-limiting enzyme of the novo sphingolipid biosynthetic pathway, thereby controlling production of endothelial sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Required to promote macrophage homing and functions such as cytokine/chemokine gene expression involved in angiogenesis, arteriogenesis and tissue repair. Mediates ICAM1 induced transendothelial migration of leukocytes such as monocytes and neutrophils and acute inflammation. Necessary for immune responses triggered by nucleic acid sensing TLRs, such as TLR9, is required for proper TLR9 location to endolysosomes. Also involved in immune response to LPS. Plays a role in liver regeneration through the modulation of hepatocytes proliferation (By similarity). Reduces the anti-apoptotic activity of Bcl-xl and Bcl-2. This is likely consecutive to their change in subcellular location, from the mitochondria to the endoplasmic reticulum, after binding and sequestration (PubMed:11126360). With isoform C, inhibits BACE1 activity and amyloid precursor protein processing (PubMed:16965550). Isoform C. Regulates cardiomyocyte apoptosis upon hypoxic conditions (By similarity). With isoform B, inhibits BACE1 activity and amyloid precursor protein processing (PubMed:16965550).

Activity summary

The Nogo protein also known as RTN4 or Nogo-A is a member of the reticulon family with an approximate mass of 200 kDa. It is known for its inhibitory role in axonal regeneration acting as a potent neurite outgrowth inhibitor. The Nogo protein is widely expressed in the central nervous system especially in oligodendrocytes and the endoplasmic reticulum of neurons. It is an important target in neurobiology due to its involvement in regulating axonal growth.

Biological function summary

Nogo protein plays a critical role in the central nervous system by maintaining the stability of neuronal circuits and preventing excessive or aberrant plasticity. It achieves this through its association with membrane-bound complexes. The Nogo-A variant in particular interacts with the Nogo receptor (NgR1) complex to mediate its effects on axon outgrowth inhibition. This interaction is important for maintaining neural structural integrity under normal physiological conditions.

Pathways

The Nogo protein is integrated into neurite outgrowth-inhibitory pathways influencing neural connectivity. It participates mainly in the RhoA-ROCK signaling pathway a pathway known for its role in modulating the cytoskeleton and neuronal morphology. Through this pathway Nogo interacts with several proteins including the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75^NTR) mediating downstream effects on cell shape and motility. The regulation of this pathway is significant for understanding axonal regeneration and growth inhibition.

Associated diseases and disorders

The Nogo protein is relevant in conditions such as spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis. In spinal cord injuries upregulated Nogo-A expression contributes to the inhibition of axonal regeneration and functional recovery. Similarly in multiple sclerosis Nogo protein's interaction with the myelin-associated inhibitors may exacerbate damage or delay in repair linked with impaired oligodendrocyte function. This connection highlights the potential therapeutic importance of targeting Nogo interactions to promote neurological recovery and repair.
