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.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

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

Neuronal Dynamics and Axonal Flow: Axonal Peristalsis [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1972 By time-lapse, phase-contrast cinemicrography of sensory nerve fibers of young mice, isolated with their originating spinal ganglia in nutrient solution, the postulated peristaltic surface drive of the cellulifugal propulsion of the semisolid axonal column at a rate of the order of 1 mm/day (1 μm/min) could be verified and quantitatively analyzed.

microRNAs in axon guidance [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014 Brain wiring is a highly intricate process in which trillions of neuronal connections are established. Its initial phase is particularly crucial in establishing the general framework of neuronal circuits. During this early step, differentiating neurons extend axons, which reach their target by navigating through a complex environment with extreme ...

Loss of AMBRA1 activates MAPK and angiogenesis signaling pathways in melanoma cells
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Loss of AMBRA1 in melanoma cells activates multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor progression. Transcriptomic and protein network analyses revealed that AMBRA1 depletion enhances MAPK/ERK signaling, angiogenesis, TGF‐β/EMT signaling, and Wnt/axon guidance pathways.

Live axonal transport disruption by mutant huntingtin fragments in Drosophila motor neuron axons [PDF]
, 2009 Huntington's Disease is a neurodegenerative condition caused by a polyglutamine expansion in thehuntingtin (Htt) protein, which aggregates and also causes neuronal dysfunction. Pathogenic N-terminal httfragments perturb axonal transport in vitro.

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
