Metabolism Controls the Timing of Human Brain Development and Maturation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Among primates the human brain is the largest in size, exhibiting a higher neuronal density and connectivity. The prolonged expansion and subsequent connectome reorganization of the human brain have been suggested to promote higher cognitive and behavioral abilities.

Organoid Brain‐Machine‐Interface Devices for Central Nervous System Repair
We envision organoid brain‐machine‐interface (Organoid‐BMI) devices as new biohybrid bidirectional communication pathways to connect the human CNS and the external world for personalized CNS repair and regeneration. ABSTRACT Central nervous system (CNS) repair and regeneration suffer from tremendous clinical challenges due to current limitations in ...

MiR-92 Controls Synaptic Development Through Glial Vha55 Regulation
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as important biomarkers for complex neurological conditions. Modifications in synaptic morphology characterize several of these disease states, indicating a possible role of miRNA in modulating synaptic formation and ...

Synaptic signaling and aberrant RNA splicing in autism spectrum disorders
Interactions between presynaptic and postsynaptic cellular adhesion molecules drive synapse maturation during development. These trans-synaptic interactions are regulated by alternative splicing of cellular adhesion molecule RNAs, which ultimately ...

Abnormal expression of cerebrospinal fluid cation chloride cotransporters in patients with Rett Syndrome [PDF]
Objective: Rett Syndrome is a progressive neurodevelopmental disorder caused mainly by mutations in the gene encoding methyl-CpG-binding protein 2. The relevance of MeCP2 for GABAergic function was previously documented in animal models. In these models,

The 3‐Hit Metabolic Signaling Model for Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Summary
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable yet environmentally sensitive neurodevelopmental condition whose biological heterogeneity has resisted a unifying causal explanation for over 100 years. The 3‐hit metabolic signaling model proposes that ASD arises from abnormal persistence of an evolutionarily conserved stress‐response ...

Exosomes regulate neurogenesis and circuit assembly. [PDF]
Exosomes are thought to be released by all cells in the body and to be involved in intercellular communication. We tested whether neural exosomes can regulate the development of neural circuits.

Glial Control of Synaptogenesis [PDF]
Though all communication between neurons occurs through synapses, we know surprisingly little about the mechanisms inducing their formation. In this issue of Cell, Barres and colleagues (Christopherson et al., 2005) demonstrate that glial-derived thrombospondins and additional soluble glial-secreted factors regulate synapse assembly and functional ...

The E3 Ubiquitin Ligase UBE3B Regulates Synaptic Development and Cortical Network Activity
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired communication, abnormal social interactions, and restricted, repetitive behaviors. Pathogenic mutations in UBE3B result in neurodevelopmental disease, including intellectual disability, lack of speech, and ASD.
