Figures & data

Figure 1.  Context- and disease-dependent pathways regulated by SNO-MEF2.

Aberrant S-nitrosylation of MEF2 (forming SNO-MEF2) controls neuronal differentiation and survival in context- and disease-dependent manners [Citation8,Citation9]. The SNO-MEF2C/PGC1α pathway is involved in death of A9 dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson’s disease [Citation8]. The SNO-MEF2C/Bcl-xL pathway contributes to cerebrocortical neuron death in stroke [Citation9]. The SNO-MEF2A/TLX cascade negatively regulates adult neurogenesis in Alzheimer’s disease [Citation9].
