THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGICAL SCIENCES Molecular Interactions Modulating Neuronal Survival and Growth
The extracellular environment of the neuron provides a heterogeneous milieu of survival and growth modulating molecular species subserving regulatory signals that operate in development, meditate activity-dependent enduring changes in synaptic connectivity, and promote or inhibit survival and axonal regeneration following insult. Parallel distributed processing networks in neurons, activated by...
متن کاملModulating Molecular Properties by Supramolecular Interactions
Supramolecular interaction is rapidly emerging as the method of choice for tuning molecular properties to meet desired applications like drug delivery vehicles, sensors, designing molecular architectures, catalysis chambers, biomimetic systems and so on. We have successfully demonstrated the modulation of electron and proton transfer reactions, acidbase characteristics and photophysical propert...
متن کاملIntegrin-cytoskeletal interactions in neuronal growth cones.
Development of the nervous system requires that neuronal growth cones, in coordination with growing axons, migrate along precise paths defined by specific extracellular matrix cues until they encounter their targets. Laminin promotes growth cone migration through receptors such as the integrins, but the underlying physical mechanism is poorly understood. We have investigated the cytoskeletal as...
متن کاملInteractions between fibroblast growth factors and Notch regulate neuronal differentiation.
The differentiation of precursor cells into neurons has been shown to be influenced by both the Notch signaling pathway and growth factor stimulation. In this study, the regulation of neuronal differentiation by these mechanisms was examined in the embryonic day 10 neuroepithelial precursor (NEP) population. By downregulating Notch1 expression and by the addition of a Delta1 fusion protein (Del...
متن کاملDistinct molecular interactions mediate neuronal process outgrowth on non-neuronal cell surfaces and extracellular matrices
We have compared neurite outgrowth on extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents to outgrowth on glial and muscle cell surfaces. Embryonic chick ciliary ganglion (CG) neurons regenerate neurites rapidly on surfaces coated with laminin (LN), fibronectin (FN), conditioned media (CM) from several non-neuronal cell types that secrete LN, and on intact extracellular matrices. Neurite outgrowth on all o...
