The electrical diversity of neurons arises from the expression of different combinations of ion channels. The gene expression rules governing these combinations are not known. We examined the expression of twenty-six ion channel genes in a broad range of s ...
It is well-established that synapse formation involves highly selective chemospecific mechanisms, but how neuron arbors are positioned before synapse formation remains unclear. Using 3D reconstructions of 298 neocortical cells of different types (including ...
The developmental potential of human pluripotent stem cells suggests that they can produce disease-relevant cell types for biomedical research. However, substantial variation has been reported among pluripotent cell lines, which could affect their utility ...
Patients with MCPH (autosomal recessive primary microcephaly) exhibit impaired brain development, presumably due to the compromised function of neuronal progenitors. Seven MCPH loci have been identified, including one that encodes centrosome protein 4.1 as ...
The availability of many high-quality genome-wide expression datasets has provided an exciting and unique opportunity to better understand the molecular etiology of Huntington's disease. Combining this knowledge with other aspects of huntingtin biology and ...
Neurons and glia in the central nervous system originate from neural stem and progenitor cells that reside in the ventricular zones. Here we examine the role of beta-catenin in neural stem cell (NSC) regulation in mouse embryos lacking beta-catenin specifi ...
Objective: A study was undertaken to investigate the effect of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain damage and mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) treatment on the structure and contralesional connectivity of motor function-related cerebral areas. Methods: Brain r ...
Hyaline Fibromatosis Syndrome (HFS) is a rare inherited disease that is characterized by an accumulation of an unidentified hyaline material, largely affecting connective tissues. Patients afflicted with HFS present a wide range of clinical symptoms such a ...
This project aimed to develop an improved positive-negative selection system for potential use in basic research and clinical applications. The NTR-CB1954 system was chosen, where introduced expression of the E. Coli derived gene product nitroreductase (NT ...
Huntington's disease (HD), caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the huntingtin (HTT) gene, is characterized by abnormal protein aggregates and motor and cognitive dysfunction. Htt protein is ubiquitously expressed, but the striatal medium spiny neuron (MSN) ...
