that involves a precisely orchestrated sequence of genetic, environmental, biochemical, and …

MCPH1, or BRIT1, is often mutated in human primary microcephaly type 1, a
neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by a smaller brain size at birth, due to its …

The expansion of brain size is accompanied by a relative enlargement of the subventricular
zone during development. Epithelial-like neural stem cells divide in the ventricular zone at …

Brain regenerative strategies through the transplantation of stem cells hold the potential to
promote functional rescue of brain lesions caused either by trauma or neurodegenerative …

Gliomas are heterogeneous neoplasms, classified into grade I to IV according to their
malignancy and the presence of specific histological/molecular hallmarks. The higher grade …

Objective To investigate the distribution and contents of vimentin (Vim) and glial fibrillary
acidic protein (GFAP) immunoreactivities in the central nervous system (CNS) of normal …

Glial glutamine and glutamate transporters play an important role in glial/neuronal
interactions. An excellent model to establish the role of these membrane proteins is the …

How genes affect tissue scale organization remains a longstanding biological puzzle. As
experimental efforts are underway to solve this puzzle via quantification of gene expression …

Spinal cord injury (SCI), which is much in the public eye, is still a refractory disease
