Abstract
Introduction
Rafts are protein-lipid structural nanodomains involved in efficient signal transduction and the modulation of physiological processes of the cell plasma membrane. Raft disruption in the nervous system has been associated with a wide range of disorders.
Development
We review the concept of rafts, the nervous system processes in which they are involved, and their role in diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer disease, and Huntington disease.
Conclusions
Based on the available evidence, preservation and/or reconstitution of rafts is a promising treatment strategy for a wide range of neurological disorders.
