Abstract Integrin Adhesion Complexes (IACs) serve as links between the cytoskeleton and extracellular environment, acting as mechanosensing and signaling hubs. As such, IACs …
The cerebral cortex, the largest and most elaborate part of the mammalian brain, is outermost layer of the brain responsible for higher cognitive function such as perception …
Proper nervous system function requires neurons to make synaptic connections with the appropriate partners, ensuring the formation of precise circuits. Even transient …
Laminar organization of the cortex requires neurons to exit the cell cycle, locomote, and assemble into six distinct layers. Neurons encounter multiple permissive and repulsive …
Sprouting angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from existing ones, is critically involved in the cardiovascular development and homeostasis of all higher organisms. While …
