EphA4 signaling promotes axon segregation in the developing auditory system.
Precision of synaptic connections within neural circuits is essential for the accurate processing of sensory information. Specificity is exemplified at cellular and subcellular levels in the chick auditory brainstem, where nucleus magnocellularis (NM) neurons project bilaterally to nucleus laminaris (NL). Dorsal dendrites of NL neurons receive input from ipsilateral, but not contralateral, bran...
متن کاملThe Effect of Working Memory Training on Auditory Stream Segregation in Auditory Processing Disorders Children
Objectives: This study investigated the efficacy of working memory training for improving working memory capacity and related auditory stream segregation in auditory processing disorders children. Methods: Fifteen subjects (9-11 years), clinically diagnosed with auditory processing disorder participated in this non-randomized case-controlled trial. Working memory abilities and auditory strea...
متن کاملEphA4 promotes cell proliferation and migration through a novel EphA4-FGFR1 signaling pathway in the human glioma U251 cell line.
The Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and their ephrin ligands form a unique cell-cell contact-mediated bidirectional signaling mechanism for regulating cell localization and organization. High expression of Eph receptors in a wide variety of human tumors indicates some roles in tumor progression, which makes these proteins potential targets for anticancer therapy. For this purpose, we did gene exp...
متن کاملGABA signaling promotes synapse elimination and axon pruning in developing cortical inhibitory interneurons.
Accumulating evidence indicates that GABA acts beyond inhibitory synaptic transmission and regulates the development of inhibitory synapses in the vertebrate brain, but the underlying cellular mechanism is not well understood. We have combined live imaging of cortical GABAergic axons across time scales from minutes to days with single-cell genetic manipulation of GABA release to examine its rol...
متن کاملIron deficiency disrupts axon maturation of the developing auditory nerve.
Iron is critical in multiple aspects of CNS development, but its role in neurodevelopment--the ability of iron deficiency to alter normal development--is difficult to dissociate from the effects of anemia. We developed a novel dietary restriction model in the rat that allows us to study the effects of iron deficiency in the absence of severe anemia. Using a combination of auditory brainstem res...
