The failure of regenerating axons to grow within the adult mammalian central nervous
system (CNS) does not apply to the olfactory bulb (OB). In this structure, normal and …

Five major types of intermediate filament (IF) proteins are expressed in mature neurons: the
three neurofilament proteins (NF‐L, NF‐M, and NF‐H), α‐internexin, and peripherin. While …

Multipotential CNS stem cells receive and implement instructions governing differentiation to
diverse neutonal and glial fates. Exploration of the mechanisms generating the many cell …

Coronal sections of the cerebral wall from developing ferrets (newborn to adult) were double‐
stained with antibodies to vimentin and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). At birth, the …

In response to injury of the central nervous system, astrocytes become reactive and express
high levels of the intermediate filament (IF) proteins glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) …

A mouse model for congenital nephrotic syndrome (NPHS1) was generated by inactivating
the nephrin gene (Nphs1) in embryonic stem cells by homologous recombination. The …

The glutamate transporter GLAST is localized on the cell membrane of mature astrocytes
and is also expressed in the ventricular zone of developing brains. To characterize and …

A monoclonal antibody to vimentin (RBA1) and a polyclonal antiserum to glial fibrillary acidic
protein (GFAP) were used in double labeling experiments to examine astrocyte intermediate …

Recent studies indicate the existence of progenitor cells and their potential for neurogenesis
in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the hippocampus of the normal adult mammalian brain …

Neurogenesis in the adult avian brain is restricted to the telencephalon. New neurons
originate in the ventricular zone (VZ) from cells that have not been identified. We mapped …
