TLDR
The results suggest that the inductive cues governing the birth and initial differentiation of reticular neurons are imparted by gastrulation and early neurulation.

Expression of a Delta homologue in prospective neurons in the chick

TL;DR: It is shown that C-Delta-1 is expressed in prospective neurons during neurogenesis, as new cells are being born and their fates decided, suggesting that both the Delta/ Notch signalling mechanism and its role in Neurogenesis have been conserved in vertebrates.

Conservation of the Notch signalling pathway in mammalian neurogenesis

TL;DR: Conservation of the Notch pathway and its regulatory mechanisms from fly to mouse are demonstrated, and a role for the murine Notch signalling pathway in the regulation of neural stem cell differentiation is supported.

Opposing FGF and Retinoid Pathways Control Ventral Neural Pattern, Neuronal Differentiation, and Segmentation during Body Axis Extension

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that FGF and RA pathways are mutually inhibitory and suggest that their opposing actions provide a global mechanism that controls differentiation during axis extension.

Control of cell pattern in the neural tube: motor neuron induction by diffusible factors from notochord and floor plate.

TL;DR: The identity and patterning of neural cell types appear to involve distinct contact-mediated and diffusible signals from the notochord and floor plate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fate of midbrain dopaminergic neurons controlled by the engrailed genes.

TL;DR: Findings show that the engrailed genes are expressed by midbrain dopaminergic neurons from their generation to adulthood but are not required for their specification, and suggest a link between En-1 and En-2 and Parkinson's disease.

THE USE OF LEAD CITRATE AT HIGH pH AS AN ELECTRON-OPAQUE STAIN IN ELECTRON MICROSCOPY

TL;DR: The stain reported here differs from previous alkaline lead stains in that the chelating agent, citrate, is in sufficient excess to sequester all lead present, and is less likely to contaminate sections.

A series of normal stages in the development of the chick embryo

TL;DR: The preparation of a series of normal stages of the chick embryo does not need justification at a time when chick ernbryos are not only widely used in descriptive and experimental embryology but are proving to be increasingly valuable in medical research, as in work on viruses and cancer.

Staining of Tissue Sections for Electron Microscopy with Heavy Metals

TL;DR: Certain hitherto unobserved details are revealed and some sort of specificity exists, although the factors involved are not yet understood.

Monoclonal antibody to 5-bromo- and 5-iododeoxyuridine: A new reagent for detection of DNA replication

TL;DR: Monoclonal antibodies specific for 5-bromodeoxyuridine have been produced and applied in detecting low levels of DNA replication on a cell-by-cell basis in vitro and do not cross-react with thymidine.
