Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder featuring complex aberrations in the
structure, wiring, and chemistry of multiple neuronal systems. The abnormal developmental …

Genetic experiments have positioned the fgfr1 gene at the top of the gene hierarchy that
governs gastrulation, as well as the subsequent development of the major body axes …

The watershed-hypothesis of schizophrenia asserts that over 200 different mutations
dysregulate distinct pathways that converge on an unspecified common mechanism (s) that …

Genetic studies have placed the Fgfr1 gene at the top of major ontogenic pathways that
enable gastrulation, tissue development and organogenesis. Using genome-wide …

In this review we summarize the current understanding of a novel integrative function of
Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor‐1 (FGFR1) and its partner CREB Binding Protein (CBP) …

Experiments in mice deficient for Nurr1 or expressing the dominant-negative FGF receptor
(FGFR) identified orphan nuclear receptor Nurr1 and FGFR1 as essential factors in …

The development of optical nano-bio interfaces is a fundamental step toward connecting
biological networks and traditional electronic computing systems. Compared to conventional …

J. Neurochem.(2012) 122, 94–105. Abstract Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF‐2) is a
neurotrophic factor participating in regulation of proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and …

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is the founding member of the polypeptide neurotrophin family
responsible for neuronal differentiation. To determine whether the effects of NGF rely upon …

Twenty years ago the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) was thought to be
vestigial with little biological relevance, but in recent years it has emerged as a functional …
