Neuronal KIF5b deletion induces striatum-dependent locomotor impairments and defects in membrane presentation of dopamine D2 receptors
The process of locomotion is controlled by fine-tuned dopaminergic neurons in the Substantia Nigra pars-compacta (SNpc) that projects their axons to the dorsal striatum regulating cortical innervations of medium spiny neurons. Dysfunction in dopaminergic neurotransmission within the striatum leads t...

The process of locomotion is controlled by fine-tuned dopaminergic neurons in the Substantia Nigra pars-compacta (SNpc) that projects their axons to the dorsal striatum regulating cortical innervations of medium spiny neurons. Dysfunction in dopaminergic neurotransmission within the striatum leads to movement impairments, gaiting defects, and hypo-locomotion. Due to their high polarity and extreme axonal arborization, neurons depend on molecular motor proteins and microtubule-based transport for their normal function. Transport defects have been associated with neurodegeneration since axonopathies, axonal clogging, microtubule destabilization, and lower motor proteins levels were described in the brain of patients with Parkinson's Disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. However, the contribution of specific motor proteins to the regulation of the nigrostriatal network remains unclear. Here, we generated different conditional knockout mice for the kinesin heavy chain 5B subunit (Kif5b) of Kinesin-1 to unravel its contribution to locomotion.
