Endogenous activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors in neocortical development causes neuronal calcium oscillations.

abstract：:Myocardin and the myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTFs) A and B act as coactivators for serum response factor, which plays a key role in cardiovascular development. To determine the functions of MRTF-B in vivo, we generated MRTF-B mutant mice by targeted inactivation of the MRTF-B gene. We show that mice hom...
