An Emerging Role of PRRT2 in Regulating Growth Cone Morphology
Mutations in the PRRT2 gene are the main cause for a group of paroxysmal neurological diseases including paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia, episodic ataxia, benign familial infantile seizures, and hemiplegic migraine. In the mature central nervous system,

Reproductive effort assessment for woody plants using Siberian spruce and Siberian fir [PDF]
The correlation between the yield of Siberian spruce (Picea obovata Ledeb.) and Siberian fir (Abies sibirica Ledeb.) cones and radial wood increments was examined using long-term data (47 years) from direct observations.

Increase in Growth Cone Size Correlates with Decrease in Neurite Growth Rate
Several important discoveries in growth cone cell biology were made possible by the use of growth cones derived from cultured Aplysia bag cell neurons, including the characterization of the organization and dynamics of the cytoskeleton.

A Method to Culture GABAergic Interneurons Derived from the Medial Ganglionic Eminence
Understanding the mechanisms guiding interneuron development is a central aspect of the current research on cortical/hippocampal interneurons, which is highly relevant to brain function and pathology.

Growth Factors as Axon Guidance Molecules: Lessons From in vitro Studies
Growth cones at the tips of extending axons navigate through developing organisms by probing extracellular cues, which guide them through intermediate steps and onto final synaptic target sites.

Actin dynamics in growth cones [PDF]
The mechanism of actin incorporation and turnover in the nerve growth cone was examined by immunoelectron microscopy and low-light-level video microscopy of cultured neurons injected with biotin-labeled actin or fluorescently labeled actin. We first determined the sites of actin incorporation into the cytoskeleton of growth cones by immunoelectron ...

The dynamics of growth cone morphology [PDF]
Normal brain function depends on the development of appropriate patterns of neural connections. A critical role in guiding axons to their targets during neural development is played by neuronal growth cones. These have a complex and rapidly changing morphology; however, a quantitative understanding of this morphology, its dynamics and how these are ...

Translational regulation in growth cones [PDF]
Axonal growth cones (GCs) steer in response to extrinsic cues using mechanisms that include local protein synthesis. This adaptive form of gene regulation occurs with spatial precision and depends on subcellular mRNA localisation. Recent genome-wide studies have shown unexpectedly complex and dynamically changing mRNA repertoires in growing axons and ...

Regulation of chemotropic guidance of nerve growth cones by microRNA
Background The small non-coding microRNAs play an important role in development by regulating protein translation, but their involvement in axon guidance is unknown.
