Neural Stem Cells of the Subventricular Zone as the Origin of Human Glioblastoma Stem Cells. Therapeutic Implications
(Frontiers Media, 2019)
Human glioblastoma is the most aggressive type of primary malignant brain tumors. Standard treatment includes surgical resection followed by radiation and chemotherapy but it only provides short-term benefits and the ...

Relative contribution of lateral vestibular neuron and abducens internuclear neuron inputs to the discharge activity of medial rectus motoneurons
(Springer, 2023)
Medial rectus motoneurons mediate nasally directed horizontal eye movements. These motoneurons receive two major excitatory inputs, from the abducens internuclear neurons (ABD Ints) and neurons of the lateral vestibular ...

Sources and lesion-induced changes of VEGF expression in brainstem motoneurons
(Springer Nature, 2020-04-01)
Motoneurons of the oculomotor system show lesser vulnerability to neurodegeneration compared to other cranial motoneurons, as seen in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The overexpression of vascular endothelial growth ...

Vascular endothelial growth factor: an essential neurotrophic factor for motoneurons?
(Medknow Publications, 2018)

Spinal cord from body donors is suitable for multicolor immunofluorescence
(Springer Nature, 2022)
Immunohistochemistry is a powerful tool for studying neuronal tissue from humans at the molecular level. Obtaining fresh neuronal tissue from human organ donors is difficult and sometimes impossible. In anatomical body ...

Eye Movements But Not Vision Drive the Development of Palisade Endings
(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2022)
PURPOSE. To test whether visual experience and/or eye movements drive the postnatal development of palisade endings in extraocular muscles. METHODS. In three newborn cats, the right eye was covered until 30 days from ...

Extraocular motoneurons of the adult rat show higher levels of vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor Flk-1 than other cranial motoneurons
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Recent studies show a relationship between the deficit of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and motoneuronal degeneration, such as that occurring in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). VEGF delivery protects ...

Eye position and eye velocity integrators reside in separate brainstem nuclei.
(National Academy of Sciences, 1994)
Two types of central nervous system integrators are critical for oculomotor performance. The first integrates velocity commands to create position signals that hold fixation of the eye. The second stores relative velocity ...

Palisade endings of extraocular muscles develop postnatally following different time courses
(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2017)
PURPOSE. To analyze in a frontal-eyed mammal (cat) the postnatal development of palisade endings in extraocular muscles (EOMs) and to compare the spatiotemporal and quantitative patterns of palisade endings among individual ...
