Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of piRNAs in the central nervous system

TL;DR: A more widespread expression of a limited set of piRNAs is reported and particularly focus on their expression in the hippocampus, which suggested a role in spine morphogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A coordinated local translational control point at the synapse involving relief from silencing and MOV10 degradation.

TL;DR: This work found that the RISC protein MOV10 was present at synapses and was rapidly degraded by the proteasome in an NMDA-receptor-mediated activity-dependent manner, and designed a translational trap to capture those mRNAs whose spatiotemporal translation is regulated by MOV10.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA Regulation of Neural Stem Cells and Neurogenesis

TL;DR: This review will highlight recent advances in the regulation of neural stem cell self-renewal and neurogenesis by microRNAs and the interplay between micro RNAs and both cell-intrinsic and -extrinsics stem cell players, including transcription factors, epigenetic regulators, and extrinsic signaling molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Statistical analysis of dendritic spine distributions in rat hippocampal cultures

TL;DR: A log-linear model was fit to the contingency table of spine features such as spine type and distance from the soma to first determine which features were important in modeling the spines, as well as the relationships between such features, and a multinomial logistic regression was used to predict the spine types using the features suggested by the log- linear model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of N-(4-chlorophenyl) substituted pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles enabling PKBβ/AKT2 inhibitory and in vitro anti-glioma activity

TL;DR: A novel biochemical kinase inhibitory function for N-(4-chlorophenyl) substituted pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles is established and their anti-glioma activity in vitro for the first time is reported.
