Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

LRP8 (ApoER2) is a multifunctional LDL receptor family member that serves as a signaling receptor, endocytic transporter, and viral entry receptor across neuronal, endothelial, platelet, and testicular cell types. In the brain, LRP8 binds Reelin (and alternative ligands including thrombospondin-1 and clusterin) to induce Dab1 tyrosine phosphorylation, PI3K/Akt activation, and NMDA receptor modulation, thereby controlling neuronal migration, dendritic architecture, and synaptic plasticity including LTP — functions that depend critically on alternatively spliced exon 19 and lipid raft localization (PMID:16102539, PMID:12670700, PMID:17913789, PMID:19948739). Regulated intramembrane proteolysis by metalloproteinases and γ-secretase releases a transcriptionally active intracellular domain (ICD) that suppresses reelin transcription and activates neuronal enhancers governing memory-related genes (PMID:24344333, PMID:25892301, PMID:25429077). Beyond the nervous system, LRP8 mediates selenoprotein P-dependent selenium uptake essential for GPX4 translation and ferroptosis resistance (PMID:17314095, PMID:37435859), scaffolds PP2A assembly to regulate eNOS phosphorylation and thrombosis in endothelial cells and platelets (PMID:21123944, PMID:29500169), and functions as an entry receptor for alphaviruses and tick-borne encephalitis virus (PMID:34929721, PMID:40993380).
