The heart is electrically and mechanically controlled as a syncytium by the autonomic
nervous system. The cardiac nervous system comprises the sympathetic, parasympathetic …

The identity of specific cell types in the nervous system is defined by the expression of
neuron type–specific gene batteries. How the expression of such batteries is initiated during …

Neurotransmitter switching is the gain of one neurotransmitter and the loss of another in the
same neuron in response to chronic stimulation. Neurotransmitter receptors on postsynaptic …

Cortical deep projection neurons (DPNs) are implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders.
Although recent findings emphasize post-mitotic programs in projection neuron fate …

Most regions of the CNS contain many subtypes of inhibitory interneurons with specialized
roles in circuit function. In the mammalian retina, the∼ 30 subtypes of inhibitory interneurons …

In the developing cortex, postmigratory neurons accumulate in the cortical plate (CP) to
properly differentiate consolidating subtype identities. Microglia, despite their extensive …

Aims Special AT‐rich sequence‐binding protein 2 (SATB2) is a transcriptional regulator with
critical roles in brain, craniofacial and skeletal development. It has emerged as a key marker …

Autonomic neuron development is controlled by a network of transcription factors, which is
induced by bone morphogenetic protein signalling in neural crest progenitor cells. This …

Expressed in branchial arches and osteoblast-lineage cells, special AT-rich sequence-
binding protein (SATB2) is responsible for preventing craniofacial abnormalities and defects …

Since the discovery of SATB2 (special AT-rich sequence binding protein 2) a decade ago, its
pivotal roles in development and tissue regeneration have emerged, particularly in …
