Overview of Gene Research
Sarm1, short for sterile alpha and TIR motif-containing 1, is the fifth TLR (Toll-like receptor) adaptor. It has diverse functions in the immune and nervous systems, and is a key mediator of Wallerian degeneration (WD). Sarm1 contains an intrinsic NADase enzymatic activity, making it respond to metabolic changes like an increased NMN/NAD+ ratio, which then triggers axon destruction [4]. It is also involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway [1].

Conditional knockout (CKO) mouse models have been instrumental in revealing Sarm1's functions. In spinal cord injury (SCI) models, Sarm1Nestin-CKO and Sarm1GFAP-CKO mice showed that conditional deletion of Sarm1 in neurons and astrocytes promoted neuronal regeneration at the intermediate phase after SCI and reduced neuroinflammation at the early phase through down-regulation of NF-κB signaling, which might be due to up-regulation of HSP70. This led to improved behavioral performance post-SCI [1]. In Alzheimer's disease (AD) model mice, SARM1Nestin-CKO mice had delayed cognitive decline, reduced Aβ deposition, and less inflammatory infiltration, suggesting Sarm1 promotes neurodegeneration and memory impairment in AD [2]. In a mouse paclitaxel model of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), Sarm1 knockout mice prevented loss of axonal function in a gene-dosage-dependent manner [3].

In conclusion, Sarm1 is crucial in axon degeneration, neuroinflammation, and neurodegenerative diseases. Studies using CKO and KO mouse models have revealed its role in SCI, AD, and CIPN, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in these disease areas. Understanding Sarm1's functions through these models helps in developing novel strategies for treating neurodegenerative disorders.
