Journal ArticleDOI
Hardwiring the brain: endocannabinoids shape neuronal connectivity.
Paul Berghuis,Ann M. Rajnicek,Yury M. Morozov,Ruth A. Ross,Jan Mulder,Gabriella M. Urbán,Krisztina Monory,Giovanni Marsicano,Michela Matteoli,Alison J. Canty,Andrew J. Irving,István Katona,Yuchio Yanagawa,Pasko Rakic,Beat Lutz,Ken Mackie,Tibor Harkany +16 more
TL;DR: This work reports that CB1 cannabinoid receptors are enriched in the axonal growth cones of γ-aminobutyric acid–containing interneurons in the rodent cortex during late gestation and demonstrates that endocannabinoid signaling regulates synaptogenesis and target selection in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
GDNF is a chemoattractant for enteric neural cells
Heather M. Young,Catherine J. Hearn,Peter G. Farlie,Alison J. Canty,Paul Q. Thomas,Donald F. Newgreen +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that GDNF may promote the migration of crest cells throughout the gastrointestinal tract, prevent them from straying out of the gut (into the mesentery and pharyngeal and pelvic tissues), and promote directed axon outgrowth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inter- and Intra-individual Variability Following Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation: Implications for Rehabilitation and Recovery
Mark R. Hinder,Emily L. Goss,Hakuei Fujiyama,Hakuei Fujiyama,Alison J. Canty,Michael I. Garry,Jennifer Rodger,Jeffery J. Summers,Jeffery J. Summers +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that iTBS is capable of inducing relatively robust and consistent effects within and between young individuals, and the capacity for iTBS to be exploited in clinical and rehabilitative interventions should continue to be explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
The DIADEM Data Sets: Representative Light Microscopy Images of Neuronal Morphology to Advance Automation of Digital Reconstructions
Kerry M. Brown,German Barrionuevo,Alison J. Canty,Alison J. Canty,Vincenzo De Paola,Judith A. Hirsch,Gregory S.X.E. Jefferis,Ju Lu,Marjolein Snippe,Marjolein Snippe,Izumi Sugihara,Giorgio A. Ascoli +11 more
TL;DR: The DIADEM challenge successfully stimulated progress in this area by utilizing six data set collections from different animal species, brain regions, neuron types, and visualization methods, and this data set package is now freely released to train, test, and aid development of automated reconstruction algorithms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular mechanisms of axon guidance in the developing corticospinal tract
Alison J. Canty,Mark Murphy +1 more
TL;DR: This review discusses each step of axonal guidance through the major brain regions--starting from the decision to grow ventrally out of the cortical plate to the eventual activity-dependent refinement of circuitry in the spinal grey matter.
