Essential genes for astroglial development and axon pathfinding during zebrafish embryogenesis [PDF]
, 2010 The formation of the central nervous system depends on the coordinated development of neural and glial cell types that arise from a common precursor. Using an existing group of zebrafish mutants generated by viral insertion, we performed a “shelf-screen”

Cannabinoid receptor CB2 modulates axon guidance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Navigation of retinal projections towards their targets is regulated by guidance molecules and growth cone transduction mechanisms. Here, we present in vitro and in vivo evidences that the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2R) is expressed along the retino ...

A chemical genetic approach reveals distinct EphB signaling mechanisms during brain development. [PDF]
, 2012 EphB receptor tyrosine kinases control multiple steps in nervous system development. However, it remains unclear whether EphBs regulate these different developmental processes directly or indirectly.

TAG-1 Multifunctionality Coordinates Neuronal Migration, Axon Guidance, and Fasciculation
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Neuronal migration, axon fasciculation, and axon guidance need to be closely coordinated for neural circuit assembly. Spinal motor neurons (MNs) face unique challenges during development because their cell bodies reside within the central ...

Requirement for Slit-1 and Robo-2 in zonal segregation of olfactory sensory neuron axons in the main olfactory bulb [PDF]
, 2007 The formation of precise stereotypic connections in sensory systems is critical for the ability to detect and process signals from the environment. In the olfactory system, olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) project axons to spatially defined glomeruli ...

Signaling from Axon Guidance Receptors [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2010 Determining how axon guidance receptors transmit signals to allow precise pathfinding decisions is fundamental to our understanding of nervous system development and may suggest new strategies to promote axon regeneration after injury or disease.

The Role of Apoptotic Signaling in Axon Guidance
Journal of Developmental Biology, 2018 Navigating growth cones are exposed to multiple signals simultaneously and have to integrate competing cues into a coherent navigational response. Integration of guidance cues is traditionally thought to occur at the level of cytoskeletal dynamics ...

Planar cell polarity genes Frizzled3a, Vangl2, and Scribble are required for spinal commissural axon guidance [PDF]
, 2016 Background A fundamental feature of early nervous system development is the guidance of axonal projections to their targets in order to assemble neural circuits that control behavior.

Dystroglycan is a scaffold for extracellular axon guidance decisions
eLife, 2019 Axon guidance requires interactions between extracellular signaling molecules and transmembrane receptors, but how appropriate context-dependent decisions are coordinated outside the cell remains unclear.
