Reduced Apoptosis and Cytochrome c-Mediated Caspase Activation in Mice Lacking Caspase 9

TL;DR: Results indicate that Casp9 is a critical upstream activator of the caspase cascade in vivo, as indicated by the absence of Casp3-like cleavage and the restoration of cytochrome c-mediated cleavage after addition of in vitro-translated Casp 9.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depletion of microglia and inhibition of exosome synthesis halt tau propagation

TL;DR: It is found that depleting microglia dramatically suppressed the propagation of tau and reduced excitability in the dentate gyrus in this mouse model, and this data suggest that microglian involvement in tau propagation and the exosome secretion pathway may be a therapeutic target.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonsynaptic GABA signaling in postnatal subventricular zone controls proliferation of GFAP-expressing progenitors.

TL;DR: It is found that GABAA receptors are tonically activated in GFAP-expressing cells, consistent with the presence of spontaneous depolarizations in neuroblasts that are sufficient to induce GABA release, and this data demonstrate the existence of nonsynaptic GABAergic signaling between neuroblast and GFAPS cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential Modulation of Proliferation in the Neocortical Ventricular and Subventricular Zones

TL;DR: The relative contributions of the VZ and SVZ to neocortical growth may be regulated by differential responsiveness to GABA and glutamate, which are implicated in the regulation of neural progenitor proliferation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular and Morphological Heterogeneity of Neural Precursors in the Mouse Neocortical Proliferative Zones

TL;DR: The present study indicates that the VZ in murine dorsal telencephalon is similar to that in human and nonhuman primates, because it contains multiple types of neuronal precursors.
