Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

ADAM23 is a catalytically inactive, furin-matured transmembrane ADAM-family glycoprotein expressed predominantly in the brain that functions as a cell-surface adhesion receptor and ligand-binding hub (PMID:15505805). Its disintegrin-like domain mediates RGD-independent binding to αvβ3 integrin, promoting adhesion of neural-origin cells while negatively modulating integrin activation; loss of ADAM23 enhances αvβ3 activation, migration, and metastatic colonization, establishing it as a metastasis suppressor (PMID:10749942, PMID:19549921, PMID:26800504). Through its ectodomain, ADAM23 serves as a receptor for the secreted LGI family of proteins (LGI1, LGI3, LGI4), and these interactions underlie its principal neuronal functions (PMID:18974846, PMID:19796686, PMID:38194969). LGI1 binding is required for normal neurite outgrowth and dendritic arborization, and ADAM23-null mice develop spontaneous seizures (PMID:19796686). In axons, ADAM23 acting through LGI2/LGI3 is essential for the accumulation and stability of juxtaparanodal Kv1 potassium channel complexes, co-assembling Kv1 nanoclusters that set the axonal refractory period and support high-frequency firing and short-term synaptic plasticity (PMID:36828548, PMID:38194969). ADAM23 also independently suppresses surface Kv1.1 currents through a clathrin-independent mechanism (PMID:30965109), and undergoes constitutive lipid-raft-dependent endocytosis with recycling to the plasma membrane, conferring high surface stability (PMID:29792904, PMID:33296662). Beyond the nervous system, ADAM23 suppresses cardiac hypertrophy via the FAK-AKT cascade (PMID:30371220) and controls dendritic-cell-driven CD4+ T cell activation through αvβ3 integrin (PMID:27317750). ADAM23 expression is activated by SP1 binding to its proximal promoter (PMID:20851106). A biallelic ADAM23 variant has been linked to lethal neonatal-onset epilepsy and myopathy within the LGI1-ADAM22/23 disease spectrum (PMID:40455867).
