Dendrites are intricately designed neuronal compartments that play a vital role in the
gathering and processing of sensory or synaptic inputs. Their diverse and elaborate …

The shape of an individual neuron is linked to its function with axons sending signals to
other cells and dendrites receiving them. Although much is known of the mechanisms for …

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 …

The dentate gyrus (DG) controls information flow into the hippocampus and is critical for
learning, memory, pattern separation, and spatial coding, while DG dysfunction is …

During neural development, cellular adhesion is crucial for interactions among and between
neurons and surrounding tissues. This function is mediated by conserved cell adhesion …

Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) has proven to be an effective way to restore
functional deficits following stroke in human and animal studies, but its underlying neural …

Neurons often grow highly branched and cell-type specific dendrite morphologies to receive
and integrate information, which is the basis of precise neural circuit formation. Previous …

Neurons are highly polarized cells with dendrites and axons. Dendrites, which receive
sensory information or input from other neurons, often display elaborately branched …

Significant progress has been made with regard to understanding how the adult brain
responds after a stroke. However, a large number of patients continue to suffer lifelong …

Mounting evidence suggests numerous glutamatergic synapse subtypes exist in the brain,
and that these subtypes are likely defined by unique molecular regulatory mechanisms …
