Transgenic Rescue of the LARGEmyd Mouse: A LARGE Therapeutic Window? [PDF]
LARGE is a glycosyltransferase involved in glycosylation of α-dystroglycan (α-DG). Absence of this protein in the LARGEmyd mouse results in α-DG hypoglycosylation, and is associated with central nervous system abnormalities and progressive muscular ...

Polymicrogyria: pathology, fetal origins and mechanisms [PDF]
Polymicrogyria (PMG) is a complex cortical malformation which has so far defied any mechanistic or genetic explanation. Adopting a broad definition of an abnormally folded or festooned cerebral cortical neuronal ribbon, this review addresses the ...

Structures of human dynein in complex with the lissencephaly 1 protein, LIS1
The lissencephaly 1 protein, LIS1, is mutated in type-1 lissencephaly and is a key regulator of cytoplasmic dynein-1. At a molecular level, current models propose that LIS1 activates dynein by relieving its autoinhibited form.

Genotype-phenotype correlation in neuronal migration disorders and cortical dysplasias
Neuronal migration disorders are human (or animal) diseases that result from a disruption in the normal movement of neurons from their original birth site to their final destination during early development. As a consequence, the neurons remain somewhere

Construction of 3D in vitro models by bioprinting human pluripotent stem cells: Challenges and opportunities [PDF]
Three-dimensional (3D) printing of biological material, or 3D bioprinting, is a rapidly expanding field with interesting applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Bioprinters use cells and biocompatible materials as an ink (bioink) to
