Neurite retraction is a crucial process during nervous system development and neurodegeneration. This process implies reorganization of the neuronal cytoskeleton. Some bioactive lipids such as lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) induce neurite retraction. The reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton during neurite retraction is one of the best-characterized effects of LPA. However, less information is available regarding the reorganization of the microtubule (MT) network in response to LPA in neuronal cells. Here, we first give an overview of the roles of cytoskeleton during neurite outgrowth, and subsequently, we review some of the data from different laboratories concerning LPA-induced cytoskeletal rearrangement in neuronal cells. We also summarize our own recent results about modifications of MTs during LPA-induced neurite retraction. we have shown that LPA induces changes in tubulin pools and increases in the phosphorylation levels of microtubule-associated proteins (MAPS), such as Tau. Tau hyperphosphorylation in response to LPA is mediated by the activation of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3). The upregulation of GSK-3 activity by LPA seems to be a general process as it occurs in diverse neuronal cells of different species in correlation with the neurite retraction process.
