The polymicrogyria-associated GPR56 promoter preferentially drives gene expression in developing GABAergic neurons in common marmosets

TL;DR: A possible pathogenic role for GABAergic neuron in the cerebral cortex of patients with GPR56 mutations is indicated by a transgenic marmoset line in which EGFP is expressed under the control of the human minimal e1m promoter.
Journal ArticleDOI

A neural stem cell paradigm of pediatric hydrocephalus.

TL;DR: It is proposed that heterogenous defects in the development of NSCs are neuroprogenitor cells that comprise the germinal neuroepithelium lining the prenatal brain ventricles, leading to abnormal brain-CSF biomechanical interactions that facilitate passive pooling of CSF and secondary ventricular distention.

Embryonic cerebrospinal fluis (e-csf), proteins from e-csf, and related methods and compositions

TL;DR: In this article, a proteomic analysis of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (e-CSF) in human and rats was performed, and methods and compositions for cell culture including components of eCSF or fragments thereof.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping of the mouse hyh gene to a YAC/BAC contig on proximal Chromosome 7

TL;DR: A physical map and transcript map may be useful for positional cloning of genes in this unusually gene-rich region of the genome and a number of potential candidate genes within this interval have been identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic malformations of the human frontal lobe

TL;DR: Interest in genetic malformations of the frontal lobe has grown from the recognition that certain brain mal Formations have a predilection for the frontal lobes or are more severe in the anterior brain.
