Perception of our environment entirely depends on the close interaction between the central
and peripheral nervous system. In order to communicate each other, both systems must …

Neuronal migration, axon fasciculation, and axon guidance need to be closely coordinated
for neural circuit assembly. Spinal motor neurons (MNs) face unique challenges during …

During neural network development, growing axons read a map of guidance cues
expressed in the surrounding tissue that lead the axons toward their targets. In particular …

BACKGROUND Neurodegenerative diseases and spinal cord injury can affect respiratory
function often through motor neuron loss innervating the diaphragm. To reinnervate this …

Abstract Development is the story of how stem cells multiply and specialise to differentiate
into specific cell types which will make the tissues, organs and systems of the adult …

Precise control of limb muscles, and ultimately of limb movement, requires accurate motor
innervation. Motor innervation of the vertebrate limb is established by sequential selection of …

Distal to its origination from the sciatic nerve, the common fibular (peroneal) nerve divides
into the superficial and deep fibular (peroneal) nerves. Whereas the deep fibular nerve …
