La organización de las células en tejidos en todos los animales depende de la membrana basal (MB), un polímero planar de proteínas de matriz extracelular que subyace epitelios y rodea órganos y tejido nervioso. Comprender la arquitectura de los tejidos y sus determinantes celulares y moleculares es esencial para descifrar los mecanismos del desarrollo normal del sistema nervioso y su fisiología alterada asociada a enfermedades y envejecimiento. En nuestro laboratorio utilizamos la mosca de la fruta Drosophila melanogaster para estudiar la secreción y el ensamblaje de la MB. Aprovechando las sofisticadas herramientas genéticas disponibles en Drosophila, y en combinación con técnicas de imagen avanzada, investigamos la biogénesis de los componentes de la MB, su ensamblaje en polímeros normales o fibróticos, y su papel en la morfogénesis del sistema nervioso, señalización intercelular, respuesta inmune, regeneración y progresión tumoral.
Un aspecto particularmente interesante de la biogénesis de la matriz extracelular es su tráfico a través de la vía secretora. Las enormes dimensiones del colágeno y otras proteínas de la matriz las hacen propensas a agregar fuera de la célula de manera dependiente de la edad y desafían los modelos actuales de cómo funciona la vía de secreción. Por ello, estamos examinando la organización altamente especializada de la vía secretora en dendritas neuronales en los llamados “puestos avanzados del Golgi”: fragmentos del Golgi que carecen de la organización altamente polarizada típica de esta organela. Entender la formación de “puestos avanzados” puede ayudar a descifrar los mecanismos de la fragmentación del Golgi, notablemente incrementada en enfermedades neurodegenerativas.
