| 1 | What downstream signaling pathways mediate LGI1/OPALIN complex effects on Sox10… The study shows LGI1-OPALIN binding leads to upregulation of Sox10 and Olig2 transcription factors, but the intracellular signaling cascade connecting receptor … gap-pubmed-20260410-193130-904ca880 | open | 0.800 | myelination biology | 2026-04-10 | Open → |
| 2 | What determines the specificity of LGI1-OPALIN interaction versus other potenti… While OPALIN is identified as an LGI1 receptor, the molecular determinants of this specific interaction and whether LGI1 has additional receptors in different c… gap-pubmed-20260410-193130-7a3bfced | open | 0.750 | myelination biology | 2026-04-10 | Open → |
| 3 | How does OPALIN function as both a paranodal structural protein and an LGI1 sig… OPALIN was previously characterized as a structural component of paranodal loops, but this study reveals it also functions as a signaling receptor for LGI1.
