Healing Pains of the Past Using Neuronal Transplantation.

abstract：:Commissural axons are attracted to the midline intermediate target by chemoattractants, but upon crossing the midline they switch off responsiveness to attractants and switch on responsiveness to midline repellents, which expel the axons from the midline and enable them to move on. Here we show that midline exit also ...

abstract：:In this issue of Neuron, Crerar et al. (2019) found Tp53inp2 as a highly expressed RNA in sympathetic neuron axons. Strikingly, its long 3' UTR ensures that Tp53inp2 is not translated in axons, and the untranslated RNA affects neuronal growth by interacting with neurotrophin receptors. ...

Although its properties are in part genetically determined, altered light-dark environment can change circadian period length through a mechanism requiring de novo DNA methylation. We show here that this mechanism is mediated not via cell-autonomous clock p...
