Doublecortin is a developmentally regulated, microtubule-associated protein expressed in migrating and differentiating neurons.

TLDR
It is shown that Doublecortin is expressed in the brain throughout the period of corticogenesis in migrating and differentiating neurons, and Immunohistochemical studies show its localization in the soma and leading processes of tangentially migrating neuron, and a strong axonal labeling is observed in differentiating neuron.

Transient expression of doublecortin during adult neurogenesis

TL;DR: The transient expression pattern of DCX in neuronal committed progenitor cells/neuroblasts indicates that DCX could be developed into a suitable marker for adult neurogenesis and may provide an alternative to BrdU labeling.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) stimulates neurogenesis in vitro and in vivo

TL;DR: Findings implicate the angiogenesis factor VEGF in neurogenesis as well in murine cerebral cortical cultures and in adult rat brain in vivo.

Induction of neurogenesis in the neocortex of adult mice.

TL;DR: It is shown that endogenous neural precursors can be induced in situ to differentiate into mature neurons, in regions of adult mammalian neocortex that do not normally undergo any neurogenesis.

Regulation of distinct AMPA receptor phosphorylation sites during bidirectional synaptic plasticity.

TL;DR: It is shown that LTP and LTD reversibly modify the phosphorylation of the AMPA receptor GluR1 subunit, and that identical stimulation conditions recruit different signal-transduction pathways depending on synaptic history.

Neurogenesis in dentate subgranular zone and rostral subventricular zone after focal cerebral ischemia in the rat

TL;DR: A role for ischemia-induced neurogenesis in what may be adaptive processes that contribute to recovery after stroke is supported.

Restricted proliferation and migration of postnatally generated neurons derived from the forebrain subventricular zone

TL;DR: The SVZa appears to constitute a specialized source of neuronal progenitor cells that differentiated into granule cells and periglomerular cells of the olfactory bulb-the two major types of interneurons.

A protein related to extracellular matrix proteins deleted in the mouse mutant reeler

TL;DR: The reeler phenotype seems to reflect a failure of early events associated with brain lamination which are normally controlled by reelin.

Neuron‐glia relationship during granule cell migration in developing cerebellar cortex. A Golgi and electonmicroscopic study in Macacus rhesus

TL;DR: The cytology of the postmitotic migratory granule cell and its relationship to Bergmann glial processes was examined with Golgi staining and electron microscopy in the three cardinal planes in the developing cerebellar cortex of Macacus rhesus at various late fetal and early postnatal ages.

Chain Migration of Neuronal Precursors

TL;DR: Electron microscopic analysis of serial sections showed that during chain migration, neural precursors moved associated with each other and were not guided by radial glial or axonal fibers.

Does Doublecortin quantify neuron differentiation?

Our data suggest that the cortical dysgeneses associated with the loss of Doublecortin function might result from abnormal cytoskeletal dynamics in neuronal cell development.
