- Abstract
- Background: Survivin is a unique member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family in that it exhibits
antiapoptotic properties and also promotes the cell cycle and mediates mitosis as a chromosome passenger
protein. Survivin is highly expressed in neural precursor cells in the brain, yet its function there has not been
elucidated.
Results: To examine the role of neural precursor cell survivin, we first showed that survivin is normally expressed
in periventricular neurogenic regions in the embryo, becoming restricted postnatally to proliferating and migrating
NPCs in the key neurogenic sites, the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the subgranular zone (SGZ). We then used a
conditional gene inactivation strategy to delete the survivin gene prenatally in those neurogenic regions. Lack of
embryonic NPC survivin results in viable, fertile mice (SurvivinCamcre) with reduced numbers of SVZ NPCs, absent
rostral migratory stream, and olfactory bulb hypoplasia. The phenotype can be partially rescued, as
intracerebroventricular gene delivery of survivin during embryonic development increases olfactory bulb
neurogenesis, detected postnatally. SurvivinCamcre brains have fewer cortical inhibitory interneurons, contributing to
enhanced sensitivity to seizures, and profound deficits in memory and learning.
Conclusions: The findings highlight the critical role that survivin plays during neural development, deficiencies of
which dramatically impact on postnatal neural function. (literal)
