Expanding Neuronal Layers by the Local Division of Committed Precursors
نویسنده
چکیده
A general strategy in vertebrate neural development is for neuronal precursors to stop dividing, to begin to differentiate, and then to migrate to their final destination. In this issue of Neuron, however, Godhino et al. provide evidence that some neuronal precursors undergo a terminal symmetric cell division at their final destination to form an entire neuronal layer.

Objective: The present study investigated the effects of a local Thai vegetable, Tiliacora triandra (Colebr.) Diels, also known as Yanang, against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice. Materials and Methods: Thirty male ICR mice were divided into three experimental groups of BLCCAO + 10% Tween 80, BLCCAO + T. triandra 300 mg/kg, and BLCCAO + T. triandra 600 mg/kg. Cerebral ischemia/repe...
متن کاملCorrection: Distinct Mammalian Precursors Are Committed to Generate Neurons with Defined Dendritic Projection Patterns
The mechanisms that regulate how dendrites target different neurons to establish connections with specific cell types remain largely unknown. In particular, the formation of cell-type-specific connectivity during postnatal neurogenesis could be either determined by the local environment of the mature neuronal circuit or by cell-autonomous properties of the immature neurons, already determined b...

The phenotype of excitatory cerebral cortex neurons is specified at the progenitor level, orchestrated by various intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Here, we provide evidence for a subcortical contribution to cortical progenitor regulation by thalamic axons via ephrin A5-EphA4 interactions. Ephrin A5 is expressed by thalamic axons and represents a high-affinity ligand for EphA4 receptors detected...

متن کاملBasic fibroblast growth factor increases division and delays differentiation of dopamine precursors in vitro.
Growth factors have been shown to be involved in the regulation of division and differentiation of neuroepithelial cells. In the present study we examined the ability of various factors to influence the development of dopamine precursors. Primary neuronal cultures were prepared from the embryonic day 12 (E12) rat ventral mesencephalon, a time and place which coincides with the beginning of the ...
