Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) abnormally accumulate in cerebrospinal fluid
(CSF) of both human neonates with preterm hydrocephalus, and P8 hydrocephalic mice. We …

The behavior of cells is generally considered to be regulated by environmental factors, but
the molecules in the milieu of neural stem cells have been little studied. We found by …

Proteoglycans of developing chick brain were distinguished on the basis of reactivity with
four well characterized antibody reagents (S103L, to the CS-rich domain; HNK-1, to 6 …

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPG) of the extracellular matrix may play regulatory
roles in central nervous system (CNS) development. We have examined the expression of …

The orderly development of the nervous system is characterized by phases of cell
proliferation and differentiation, neural migration, axonal outgrowth and synapse formation …

There is increasing evidence that proteoglycans, particularly chondroitin sulfate
proteoglycans (CSPGs), are integral components in the assembly of the extracellular matrix …

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs), including neurocan and phosphocan, are
believed to be major components of brain extracellular matrix that interact with other matrix …

Using immunocytochemistry, we have compared the distribution of neurocan and
phosphacan in the developing central nervous system. At embryonic day 13 (E13) …

A large condroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) identified in embryonic chick brain, and
synthesized exclusively by neurons in a developmentally expressed pattern that coincides …

The first thalamocortical axons to arrive in the developing cerebral cortex traverse a pathway
that is separate from the adjacent intracortical pathway for early efferents, suggesting that …
