Developmental biology of a neural cell adhesion molecule
Nature, 1984A membrane glycoprotein isolated from embryonic brain has been shown to be a ligand in the formation of cell-cell bonds. The molecule, called neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM), participates in several aspects of neural development, including the formation of plexiform layers, neurite fasciculation and nerve-muscle interactions.

Olfactory ensheathing cells: Biology in neural development and regeneration
Progress in Neurobiology, 2010Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) constitute a unique population of glia that accompany and ensheath the primary olfactory axons. They are thought to be critical for spontaneous growth of olfactory axons within the developing and adult olfactory nervous system, and have recently emerged as potential candidates for cell-mediated repair of neural ...

Enteric neural crest‐derived cells and neural stem cells: biology and therapeutic potential
Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2004AbstractThe enteric nervous system arises from two regions of the neural crest; the vagal neural crest which gives rise to the vast majority of enteric neurones throughout the gastrointestinal tract, and the sacral neural crest which contributes a smaller number of cells that are mainly distributed within the hindgut.

Neural Plasticity and Cell Biology of Learning
2004Changes in the number, type, and function of nervous system connections, in the morphology and function of glia, and in neuron-glia interactions, are at the center of vertebrate adjustments to changing environmental and physiological conditions. Collected together under the term “neural plasticity”, these changes underlie adaptations as apparently ...

Neural Tube Defects, Molecular Biology of
2006Spina bifida is usually grouped together with the closely related conditions anencephaly and craniorachischisis, to form the category of congenital malformations known as neural tube defects (NTDs). NTDs affect approximately 1 in every 1000 pregnancies, equating to a worldwide prevalence of around 120 000 pregnancies with NTDs per year.

Prominin-1 (CD133) and the Cell Biology of Neural Progenitors and Their Progeny
2012Our group discovered prominin-1 in search for markers to study the cell polarity of neural stem and progenitor cells in the developing brain. Over the past 15 years, prominin-1, also called CD133, has not only become a frequently used marker of neural stem cells and neural cancer stem cells, as is in fact the case of somatic (cancer) stem cells in ...
