Neuronal morphogenesis relies on intercellular signaling. Astrocytes release metabolites, trophic, and guidance factors to promote neuronal maturation. In contrast, the mechanisms by which astrocytes could limit and stabilize neuronal connectivity remain less explored. Here, we show cortical astrocytes to express and release S100A6, a Ca2+-binding protein ( calcyclin). Simultaneously, the majority of cortical neurons express calcyclin-binding protein (CaCyBp), a bona fide binding partner for S100A6. In neurons, CaCyBp maintains the unfolded protein response pathway, thereby controlling proteostasis. When released, S100A6 inhibits CaCyBp-mediated signaling, thus slowing protein turnover, and, consequently, neuritogenesis. S100A6-CaCyBp signaling during gestation and lactation is sensitive to the mothers nutritional status, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid intake. Thus, a member of the S100 protein family acts as an astroglia-derived morphogen, whose action on neurons is modulated by environmental factors.
