Nuclear Migration: From Fungi to the Mammalian Brain
Textbooks represent the animal cell nucleus as a sort of cellular Jabba the Hutt, torpidly enthroned in the center of the cell. In fact nothing could be farther from the truth. The nucleus more closely resembles Luke Skywalker, the hero of Star Wars, in its ability to move about in its cellular universe. Instances of nuclear motility are found throughout biology. Indeed, nuclear migration appea...
متن کاملNuclear migration events throughout development.
Moving the nucleus to a specific position within the cell is an important event during many cell and developmental processes. Several different molecular mechanisms exist to position nuclei in various cell types. In this Commentary, we review the recent progress made in elucidating mechanisms of nuclear migration in a variety of important developmental models. Genetic approaches to identify mut...
متن کاملDrebrin Regulates Neuroblast Migration in the Postnatal Mammalian Brain
After birth, stem cells in the subventricular zone (SVZ) generate neuroblasts that migrate along the rostral migratory stream (RMS) to become interneurons in the olfactory bulb (OB). This migration is crucial for the proper integration of newborn neurons in a pre-existing synaptic network and is believed to play a key role in infant human brain development. Many regulators of neuroblast migrati...
متن کاملModes and mishaps of neuronal migration in the mammalian brain.
The ability of neurons to migrate to their appropriate positions in the developing brain is critical to brain architecture and function. Recent research has elucidated different modes of neuronal migration and the involvement of a host of signaling factors in orchestrating the migration, as well as vulnerabilities of this process to environmental and genetic factors. Here we discuss the role of...
متن کاملGlobal epigenomic reconfiguration during mammalian brain development.
DNA methylation is implicated in mammalian brain development and plasticity underlying learning and memory. We report the genome-wide composition, patterning, cell specificity, and dynamics of DNA methylation at single-base resolution in human and mouse frontal cortex throughout their lifespan. Widespread methylome reconfiguration occurs during fetal to young adult development, coincident with ...
