Many oligodendrocytes in the spinal cord are derived from a region of the ventral ventricular zone (VZ) that also gives rise to motoneurons. Cell fate specification in this region depends on sonic hedgehog (Shh) from the notochord and floor plate. There have been suggestions of an additional source(s) of oligodendrocytes in the dorsal spinal cord. We revisited this idea by Cre-lox fate-mapping ...

In early cortical development, neural progenitor cells (NPCs) expand their population in the ventricular zone (VZ), and produce neurons. Although a series of studies have revealed the process of neurogenesis, the molecular mechanisms regulating NPC proliferation are still largely unknown. Here we found that RhoG, a member of Rho family GTPases, was expressed in the VZ at early stages of cortica...

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined and split over Z, let T be a maximal torus, W the Weyl group, R the root system, R the set of coroots, R a set of positive roots, and ρ the half-sum of the elements of R. Let X = X(T ) be the character group of T and let X be the set of those λ ∈ X such that 〈λ, α〉 ≥ 0 for all α ∈ R. For any λ ∈ X, let VZ(λ) be the Weyl module for G ...

WMSSM = h u ijQi ·HiUj + hijQi ·HdD̄j + hijLi ·HdĒj + μHu ·Hd. (1) (1) has been constructed so as to conserve R-parity (even for particles, odd for sparticles) Rp ≡ (−1), B, L and s being baryon no., lepton no. and spin. This is equivalent to the conservation of matter parity which transforms the superfields as (Li, Ēi, Qi, Ūi, D̄i) → −(Li, Ēi, Qi, Ūi, D̄i), (Hu, Hd, Vγ, VZ , V + W , V − W ) → (Hu...

Formation of the normal mammalian cerebral cortex requires the migration of GABAergic inhibitory interneurons from an extracortical origin, the lateral ganglionic eminence (LGE). Mechanisms guiding the migratory direction of these neurons, or other neurons in the neocortex, are not well understood. We have used an explant assay to study GABAergic neuronal migration and found that the ventricula...

Based on our previous experience we want to compare the performance between five hypervisors: XEN-PV, XENHVM,Open-VZ,KVM-FV,KVM-PV We have simulated the migration of a virtual machine by using a warning failure approach. Based on some experiments we have compared CPU Consumption, Memory Utilization, Total Migration Time and Downtime. We have also tested the hypervisor’s performance by changing ...

The majority of neurons in the adult neocortex are produced embryonically during a brief but intense period of neuronal proliferation. The radial glial cell, a transient embryonic cell type known for its crucial role in neuronal migration, has recently been shown to function as a neuronal progenitor cell and appears to produce most cortical pyramidal neurons. Radial glial cell modulation could ...
