Cell–cell fusion remains the least understood type of membrane fusion process. However,
the last few years have brought about major advances in understanding fusion between …

Neonates can develop hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) due to lack of blood supply
or oxygen, resulting in a major cause of death and disability among term newborns …

Axon guidance helps growing neural axons to follow precise paths to reach their target
locations. It is a critical step for both the formation and regeneration of neuronal circuitry …

For ages, regeneration has intrigued countless biologists, clinicians, and biomedical
engineers. In recent years, significant progress made in identification and characterization of …

Regulation of the microtubule cytoskeleton is crucial for the development and maintenance
of neuronal architecture, and recent studies have highlighted the significance of regulated …

Neurons are vulnerable to physical insults, which compromise the integrity of both dendrites
and axons. Although several molecular pathways of axon regeneration are identified, our …

A diversity of gene regulatory mechanisms drives the changes in gene expression required
for animal development. Here, we discuss the developmental roles of a class of gene …

Neuronal polarization is facilitated by the formation of axons with parallel arrays of plus-end-
out and dendrites with the nonuniform orientation of microtubules. In C. elegans, the …

Ethanol is a widely used drug, excessive consumption of which could lead to medical
conditions with diverse symptoms. Ethanol abuse causes dysfunction of memory, attention …

Restoration of lost function following a nervous system injury is limited in adulthood as the
regenerative capacity of nervous system declines with age. Pharmacological approaches …
