These observations support the hypothesis that somal translocation can occur independently of radial glial fibers; experimental proof will require methods that permit visualization of both moving ...

They can be found in close proximity of radial glial cells, dying cells, blood vessels, axons and synapses where they are thought to play part in neuro- and gliogenesis, neuronal cell death, ...

We thank Professor John L. Rubenstein for his comments, suggestions, and edits. We are grateful to Professor Hua Han for sharing the Rbpj floxed mice, and Professor Jean M. Hebert for sharing ...

How the disruption of these signaling cascades leads to abnormal patterns of neuronal migration in vivo is not yet clearly understood. Recent studies have produced several advances in our ...

After finishing their role during the neurogenesis stage, radial glial cells and ORGCs switch to produce different types of glial cells, e.g., astrocytes and oligodendrocytes (Schmechel and Rakic, ...

Around GW5, neural progenitor cells, called radial glial cells, (RGs) begin to switch from symmetric to asymmetric cell division. During asymmetric division, one daughter cell remains in the VZ as a ...

The proliferation and fate controls of injury-reactivated glia are essential but remain largely unexplored. In zebrafish optic tectum, we found that stab injury drove a subset of radial glia (RG) into ...
