Potassium Channels in Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons,which we wish tobe considered for publication in Nature Neuroscience.GDNF has long been thought to be a potent neurotrophic factor for the survival of midbraindopaminergic neurons,which are degenerated in Parkinson s disease.In this paper,we report anunexpected,acute effect of GDNF on A-type potassium channels,leading to a potentiation ofneuronal excitability,in the dopaminergic neurons in culture as well as in adult brain slices.Further,we show that GDNF regulates the K+channels through a mechanism that involves activation of MAPkinase.Thus,this study has revealed,for the first time,an acute modulation of ion channels byGDNF.Our findings challenge the classic view of GDNF as a long-term survival factor for midbraindopaminergic neurons,and suggest that the normal function of GDNF is to regulate neuronalexcitability,and consequently dopamine release.These results may also have implications in thetreatment of Parkinsons disease.Due to a direct petition and conflict of interest,we request that Drs.XXX of HarvardUniv.,and YY ofYale Univ.not be considered as reviewers.With thanks for your consideration,I amSincerely yours,case2case2Dear Editor,We would like to submit the enclosed manuscript entitled Ca2+-binding protein frequenin mediatesGDNF-induced potentiation of Ca2+channels and transmitter release,which we wish to beconsidered for publication in Neuron.We believe that two aspects of this manuscript will make it interesting to general readers of Neuron.First,we report that GDNF has a long-term regulatory effect on neurotransmitter release at theneuromuscular synapses.This provides the first physiological evidence for a role of this new familyof neurotrophic factors in functional synaptic transmission.Second,we show that the GDNF effect ismediated by enhancing the expression of the Ca2+-binding protein frequenin.Further,GDNF andfrequenin facilitate synaptic transmission by enhancing Ca2+channel activity,leading to anenhancement of Ca2+influx.Thus,this study has identified,for the first time,a molecular target thatmediates the long-term,synaptic action of a neurotrophic factor.Our findings may also have generalimplications in the cell biology of neurotransmitter release.0630投稿写作某杂志给出的标准Sample Cover Letterthe example used is the IJEB-.可修编.-.Case 3Sample Cover
