eLife, 2021 During brain development, axons must extend over great distances in a relatively short amount of time. How the subcellular architecture of the growing axon sustains the requirements for such rapid build-up of cellular constituents has remained elusive ...

A chloride channel in rat and human axons [PDF]
, 1991 Current recordings from single chloride channels were obtained from excised and cell-attached patches of rat and human axons. In rat axons the channels showed an outwardly rectifying current-voltage relationship with a slope conductance of 33 pS at ...

Neuron Names: A Gene- and Property-Based Name Format, With Special Reference to Cortical Neurons
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2019 Precision in neuron names is increasingly needed. We are entering a new era in which classical anatomical criteria are only the beginning toward defining the identity of a neuron as carried in its name.

Lmx1b is required at multiple stages to build expansive serotonergic axon architectures
eLife, 2019 Formation of long-range axons occurs over multiple stages of morphological maturation. However, the intrinsic transcriptional mechanisms that temporally control different stages of axon projection development are unknown. Here, we addressed this question

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 The tri-synaptic pathway in the mammalian hippocampus enables cognitive learning and memory. Despite decades of reports on anatomy and physiology, the functional architecture of the hippocampal network remains poorly understood in terms of the dynamics ...

eLife, 2016 The mechanisms regulating synapse numbers during development and ageing are essential for normal brain function and closely linked to brain disorders including dementias. Using Drosophila, we demonstrate roles of the microtubule-associated protein Tau in

The avian tectobulbar tract: development, explant culture, and effects of antibodies on the pattern of neurite outgrowth [PDF]
, 1990 The tectobulbar tract is the first long-distance projecting fiber pathway to appear during the development of the avian optic tectum (dorsal half of the mesencephalon).

Local Accumulation of Axonal Mitochondria in the Optic Nerve Glial Lamina Precedes Myelination
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2021 Mitochondria are essential for neurons and must be optimally distributed along their axon to fulfill local functions. A high density of mitochondria has been observed in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons of an unmyelinated region of the optic nerve ...

Nondirected axonal growth on basal lamina from avian embryonic neural retina [PDF]
, 1987 The vitreous surface of the embryonic avian retinal neuroepithelium was isolated by mechanical disruption of the retina mounted between 2 adhesive substrata.

Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs): Risk Factors for Autism Spectrum Disorder?
Toxics, 2020 Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) includes a group of multifactorial neurodevelopmental disorders defined clinically by core deficits in social reciprocity and communication, restrictive interests and repetitive behaviors.
