Yesterday we celebrated the end-of-year party at @ebynunsam. But before that, we were busy decorating the Christmas tree: a 2 DIV neuron in green, adorned with red mitochondria 🎄🧠. Wishing you a year full of new projects, surrounded by the best people.

Ayer celebramos la fiesta de fin de año de la @ebynunsam. Antes, armamos el árbol de Navidad : neurona de 2 DIV en verde, decorada con mitocondrias en rojo 🎄🧠 . Les deseo un año lleno de nuevos proyectos, rodeados de las mejores personas

I witnessed a family lose their adult son and daughter to this terrible disease. The financial burden was staggering, the emotional toll of watching healthy 30-40 year old children being torn from them in the worst way. This is a miracle. Thank you science.

Drawing the mind, one neuron at a time: A 2022 book walks readers through the life and work of Santiago Ramón y Cajal, the Spaniard whom many consider the founder of modern #neuroscience. Check out the #ScienceBooks Review on #WorldBookDay: scim.ag/3RvHDmQ
Cajal’s rendering of a Purkinje neuron found in the human cerebellum captures the beauty and intricacy of this complex cell.

7/ Studying gene variants gives critical insights into disease mechanisms and genetic susceptibility. Understanding GPM6a’s role in neuropsychiatric disorders may improve diagnosis and therapeutic strategies in the future. 🏥🧠

6/ We also compared silico predictions with functional assays. Surprisingly, computational models didn’t always align with experimental results. This highlights the need to validate genetic risk factors with lab experiments! ⚠️

5/ Additionally, several nsSNPs weakened GPM6a-mediated cell aggregation, reinforcing the importance of its extracellular domains in the homophilic interaction.

4/ However, some nsSNPs disrupted GPM6a’s distributionat the membrane. One variant also altered GPM6a oligomerization, suggesting it plays a key role in homophilic cis interactions.

Camila Scorticati @k1000as.bsky.social · 11/02/2025
3/ We analyzed 13 non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) in GPM6a’s extracellular domains of which 6 (T71P, T76I, M154V, F156Y, R163Q, T210N) impair GPM6a-induced neuronal development—but without altering expression, folding, or membrane localization. 🧬🔍

2/ GPM6a is crucial for neurite outgrowth, filopodia formation, and synapse maintenance. But how do genetic variations impact its function? 🤔

Camila Scorticati @k1000as.bsky.social · 11/02/2025
1/ Psychiatric disorders arise from complex interactions between genes & environment, often affecting neuronal morphogenesis. Our work focuses on GPM6a, a neuronal glycoprotein linked to schizophrenia, depression, and claustrophobia.

In 2023, we also decided to have three organizers in different continents to increase awareness and reach more researchers and trainees. We were still an EMBO and IUBMB event. This time the organizers were @stephgupton.bsky.social @christlet.bsky.social and Carlos Wilson
