The Many Hats of Sonic Hedgehog Signaling in Nervous System Development and Disease. [PDF]
, 2016 Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling occurs concurrently with the many processes that constitute nervous system development. Although Shh is mostly known for its proliferative and morphogenic action through its effects on neural stem cells and progenitors, it ...

Postnatal development of retrosplenial projections to the parahippocampal region of the rat
eLife, 2016 The rat parahippocampal region (PHR) and retrosplenial cortex (RSC) are cortical areas important for spatial cognition. In PHR, head-direction cells are present before eye-opening, earliest detected in postnatal day (P)11 animals.

Leptin signaling and leptin resistance
Medical Review, 2022 With the prevalence of obesity and associated comorbidities, studies aimed at revealing mechanisms that regulate energy homeostasis have gained increasing interest. In 1994, the cloning of leptin was a milestone in metabolic research. As an adipocytokine,

Hippo-Yap Pathway Orchestrates Neural Crest Ontogenesis [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Neural crest (NC) cells are a migratory stem cell population in vertebrate embryogenesis that can give rise to multiple cell types, including osteoblasts, chondrocytes, smooth muscle cells, neurons, glia, and melanocytes, greatly contributing to the development of different tissues and organs.

Redundant neural vision systems: competing for collision recognition roles [PDF]
, 2013 Ability to detect collisions is vital for future robots that interact with humans in complex visual environments. Lobula giant movement detectors (LGMD) and directional selective neurons (DSNs) are two types of identified neurons found in the visual ...

Caldesmon regulates actin dynamics to influence cranial neural crest migration in Xenopus [PDF]
, 2011 Caldesmon (CaD) is an important actin modulator that associates with actin filaments to regulate cell morphology and motility. Although extensively studied in cultured cells, there is little functional information regarding the role of CaD in migrating ...

Regulation of Neural Circuitry under General Anesthesia: New Methods and Findings
Biomolecules, 2022 General anesthesia has been widely utilized since the 1840s, but its underlying neural circuits remain to be completely understood. Since both general anesthesia and sleep are reversible losses of consciousness, studies on the neural-circuit mechanisms ...
