Metachronous Pineal Germinoma 11 Years After Total Resection of a Mature Teratoma

open access: yesNeuropathology, Volume 46, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Central nervous system germ cell tumors are uncommon and include germinomas, teratomas, and other nongerminomatous germ cell tumors. Mature teratomas are usually cured by complete resection, but rare patients later develop a histologically distinct malignant germ cell tumor.

Rostrocaudal polarity formation of chick optic tectum [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The optic tectum receives retinal fibers in a topographically ordered manner. For the formation of the precise connections, the tectum is believed to be positionally specified by gradients of molecules along axes.

Trimerous magnoliid flowers with a unique set of floral and pollen traits from the Late Cretaceous of Southern Bohemia (Czech Republic)

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2266-2283, August 2026.
Morphospace position and phylogenetic placements of Trimeriantha monopolyada. Summary Floral structure is a key aspect of angiosperm diversity. Recent research revealed that significant floral disparity was already present in the Cretaceous. However, our understanding of early floral diversity remains limited, as it is directly dependent on the fossil ...

Retinotectal projections influence optic tectum growth in zebrafish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the zebrafish visual system, the retina and optic tectum grow in register throughout life. Both regions add new neurons from proliferation zones at their margins, with newly differentiated retinal ganglion cells projecting to, and making new synapses ...

Target selection by surgically misdirected optic fibers in the tectum of goldfish

open access: yes, 1984
This study tested the capacity of regenerating optic fibers to read tectal markers and thereby grow to their appropriate tectal loci when initial position, optic pathway, and interfiber interactions are eliminated as useful cues.

Protocadherin 19 regulates axon guidance in the developing Xenopus retinotectal pathway

open access: yesMolecular Brain
Protocadherin 19 (Pcdh19) is a homophilic cell adhesion molecule and is involved in a variety of neuronal functions. Here, we tested whether Pcdh19 has a regulatory role in axon guidance using the developing Xenopus retinotectal system.

Beyond Endocasts: Using Predicted Brain-Structure Volumes of Extinct Birds to Assess Neuroanatomical and Behavioral Inferences

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
The shape of the brain influences skull morphology in birds, and both traits are driven by phylogenetic and functional constraints. Studies on avian cranial and neuroanatomical evolution are strengthened by data on extinct birds, but complete, 3D ...

Personalized Selumetinib Dosing in Pediatric Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Insights From a Pilot Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate selumetinib exposure using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN), assess interpatient pharmacokinetic variability, and explore the relationship between drug exposure, clinical response, and adverse effects.

An intrinsic CRF signaling pathway in the optic tectum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is a 41 amino acid peptide that is best known as the principle hypophysiotropic hormone regulating the pituitary-adrenal axis during stress.

Spatially precise visual gain control mediated by a cholinergic circuit in the midbrain attention network

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Attention and gaze impact the spatial responsiveness of neurons in the optic tectum. Here the authors elucidate the mechanism by which cholinergic inputs affect receptive field properties of tectal neurons in a spatially precise manner in barn owls.
