Nkx2.1-derived astrocytes and neurons together with Slit2 are indispensable for anterior commissure formation
Guidepost cells present at and surrounding the midline provide guidance cues that orient the growing axons through commissures. Here we show that the transcription factor Nkx2.1 known to control the specification of GABAergic interneurons also regulates the differentiation of astroglia and polydendrocytes within the mouse anterior commissure (AC). Nkx2.1-positive glia were found to originate fr...
متن کاملAnterior Commissure - Posterior Commissure Revisited
OBJECTIVE The anterior commissure (AC) and posterior commissure (PC) are the two distinct anatomic structures in the brain which are difficult to observe in detail with conventional MRI, such as a 1.5T MRI system. However, recent advances in ultra-high resolution MRI have enabled us to examine the AC and PC directly. The objective of the present study is to standardize the shape and size of the...
متن کاملTsukushi is required for anterior commissure formation in mouse brain.
The anterior commissure (AC) is one of the important commissure projections in the brain that conveys information from one side of the nervous system to the other. During development, the axons from the anterior AC (aAC) and the posterior AC (pAC) course in the same dorsoventral plane and converge into a common fascicle for midline crossing. Previously, we reported that Tsukushi (TSK), a member...
متن کامل[Carcinoma of the anterior commissure].
Treatment of glottic carcinoma with anterior commissure involvement is under debate. Treatment spectrum includes surgery, open or endoscopic, and radiotherapy. Since similar results are reported in the literature, preferences depend on experience and skill of the person responsible for treatment. Our objective is the analysis of scientific data published in Medline, CancerLit, Cochrane Register...
متن کاملAssociation of astrocytes with neurons and astrocytes derived from distinct progenitor domains in the subpallium
Astrocytes play pivotal roles in metabolism and homeostasis as well as in neural development and function in a manner thought to depend on their region-specific diversity. In the mouse spinal cord, astrocytes and neurons, which are derived from a common progenitor domain (PD) and controlled by common PD-specific transcription factors, migrate radially and share their final positions. However, w...
