“This is where we first saw the abundance of basal radial glia—but not in the Neanderthal version,” Pinson says. The team then ran the same test on ferrets, the brains of which more closely resemble a ...

These observations support the hypothesis that somal translocation can occur independently of radial glial fibers; experimental proof will require methods that permit visualization of both moving ...

In mice, at about embryonic day (E) 8.5, these cells begin to take on the characteristics of radial glia. During the ensuing phase of neurogenesis, the radial glial cells divide asymmetrically to ...

Using conditional mutagenesis we have determined that integrins, dystroglycan and RhoGTPAses are required for radial sorting because they induce cytoskeletal rearrangements that allow the generation ...
