FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Assembly of sensory-motor connectivity in the spinal cord of mice [PDF]
, 2007 Many features critical for proper functioning of an organism are under the control of neuronal circuits. The building blocks for these circuits are formed early during embryogenesis and are generated by the specification of distinct neuronal types.

Neurobiology of Disease, 2005 Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by a progressive loss of large motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Amyloid precursor protein (APP), the transmembrane precursor of β-amyloid (Aβ), accumulates in the anterior horn motor neurons

Maturation of spinal motor neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Our understanding of motor neuron biology in humans is derived mainly from investigation of human postmortem tissue and more indirectly from live animal models such as rodents.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Localization of Motor Neurons and Central Pattern Generators for Motor Patterns Underlying Feeding Behavior in Drosophila Larvae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Motor systems can be functionally organized into effector organs (muscles and glands), the motor neurons, central pattern generators (CPG) and higher control centers of the brain.

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Cell type specific connections from primary motor to primary somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
, 2013 Anatomical studies have shown that primary somatosensory (S1) and primary motor (M1) cortices are reciprocally connected. The pathway from primary motor cortex (M1) to primary somatosensory cortex (S1) is thought to influence activity in S1 by ...

Increased motor neuron resilience by small molecule compounds that regulate IGF-II expression
Neurobiology of Disease, 2018 The selective vulnerability of motor neurons in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is evident by sparing of a few subpopulations during this fast progressing and debilitating degenerative disease. By studying the gene expression profile of resilient vs.
