  • Periventricular heterotopia (PH) is one of the most common malformations of cortical development (MCD). Nodules along the lateral ventricles of the brain, disruption of the ventricular lining, and a reduced brain size are hallmarks of this disorder. PH results in a disruption of the neuroependyma, inhibition of neural proliferation and differentiation, and altered neuronal migration. Human mutations in the genes encoding the actin-binding Filamin A (FLNA) and the vesicle trafficking Brefeldin A-associated guanine exchange factor 2 (BIG2 is encoded by the ARFGEF2 gene) proteins are implicated in PH formation. Recent studies have shown that the transition from proliferating neural progenitors to post-mitotic neurons relies on apical abscission along the neuroepithelium. This mechanism involves an actin dependent contraction of the apical portion of a neural progenitor along the ventricular lining to complete abscission. Actin also maintains stability of various cell adhesion molecules along the neuroependyma. Loss of cadherin directs disassembly of the primary cilium, which transduces sonic-hedgehog (Shh) signaling. Shh signaling is required for continued proliferation. In this context, apical abscission regulates neuronal progenitor exit and migration from the ventricular zone by detachment from the neuroependyma, relies on adhesion molecules that maintain the integrity of the neuroepithelial lining, and directs neural proliferation. Each of these processes is disrupted in PH, suggesting that genes causal for this MCD, may fundamentally mediate apical abscission in cortical development. Here we discuss several recent reports that demonstrate a coordinated role for actin and vesicle trafficking in modulating neural development along the neurepithelium, and potentially the neural stem cell to neuronal transition.
