Lipoprotein receptor loss in forebrain radial glia results in neurological deficits and severe seizures.
The Alzheimer disease-associated multifunctional low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 is expressed in the brain. Recent studies uncovered a role of this receptor for the appropriate functioning of neural stem cells, oligodendrocytes, and neurons. The constitutive knock-out (KO) of the receptor is embryonically lethal. To unravel the receptors' role in the developing brain we generated a mouse mutant by specifically targeting radial glia stem cells of the dorsal telencephalon. The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 lineage-restricted KO female and male mice, in contrast to available models, developed a severe neurological phenotype with generalized seizures duri…
