New insights into Fat cadherins.
Cell-cell adhesion is fundamental to multicellular architecture. Several classes of adhesion molecule are used to achieve this, and cadherins represent a major family of such molecules. The cadherin family has multiple subfamilies. Members of the Fat cadherin subfamily, which is conserved across species, have an extraordinarily large extracellular region, comprising 34 repeated domains, making ...

In this investigation the effects of excess vitamin A administration during the early embryonic period were studied. Intramuscular injection of a single dose of 15000,20000 or 25000 IU/kg vitamin A to pregnant Balb/c strain mice on either day 7,8,9 or 10 of gestation (vaginal plug= day 0 of gestation) produced major malformations in the central nervous system (CNS) including exencephaly, h...
متن کاملRobust prey detection in a small nervous system.
V ision plays a huge role for us humans, as well as for many other animals. If you have ever tried to walk in a straight line with your eyes closed, you know how important self-generated optic flow is for maintaining a straight trajectory. Besides such widefield optic flow cues, we can also visualize the motion of objects that move independently of the remaining visual surround. Such targets ma...
