The Ror‐family receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) play crucial roles in the development of
various organs and tissues. In mammals, Ror2, a member of the Ror‐family RTKs, has been …

The ability of neurons to form a single axon and multiple dendrites underlies the directional
flow of information transfer in the central nervous system. Dendrites and axons are …

The c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) are important regulators of physiological and
pathological processes in the central and peripheral nervous system. In general, JNKs are …

Recombinant Wnt-3a stimulated the rapid formation of elongated processes in Ewing
sarcoma family tumor (ESFT) cells that were identified as neurites. The processes stained …

Experiments with sciatic nerve lesions and spinal cord contusion injury demonstrate that the
retinoic acid (RA) signaling cascade is activated by these traumatic events. In both cases the …

Development of meso-diencephalic dopamine (mdDA) neurons requires the combined
actions of the orphan nuclear receptor Nurr1 and the paired-like homeobox transcription …

The attachment of O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) to proteins is an abundant
and reversible modification that involves many cellular processes including transcription …

Stem cell transplantation therapy has provided promising hope for the treatment of a variety
of neurodegenerative disorders. Among challenges in developing disease-specific stem cell …

Arsenic has neurotoxic effects on both central and peripheral components of the mature
nervous system. There is increasing evidence that exposure to arsenic is also toxic to the …

Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) exert biological effects and are in clinical use to
facilitate bone repair and wound healing. Research has demonstrated that PEMF can …
