A novel morphological technique to investigate a single climbing fibre synaptogenesis with a Purkinje cell in the developing mouse cerebellum: DiI injection into the inferior cerebellar peduncle (2003)

Kiyohara, Yoshimoto, Endo, Katsuaki, Ide, Chizuka, Mizoguchi, Akira

To study morphologically the relationship between climbing fibre and Purkinje cell in the developing mouse cerebellum, we established a novel tract tracing using injection of...

Regenerating Axons and Their Growth Cones Observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (1990)

Kumagai, Ken-ichi, Ushiki, Tatsuo, Tohyama, Koujiro, Arakawa, Masahiko, Ide, Chizuka

A predenervated sciatic nerve segment, which had been treated by repeated freezing and thawing to kill Schwann cells, was grafted to the original sciatic nerve in the rat. Three to five days later,...

Specific induction of neuronal cells from bone marrow stromal cells and application for autologous transplantation

Dezawa, Mari, Kanno, Hiroshi, Hoshino, Mikio, Cho, Hirotomi, Matsumoto, Naoya, Itokazu, Yutaka, ...

Bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs) have the capability under specific conditions of differentiating into various cell types such as osteocytes, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. Here we demonstrate a...

The Ras Target AF-6 Interacts with ZO-1 and Serves as a Peripheral Component of Tight Junctions in Epithelial Cells

Yamamoto, Takaharu, Harada, Naozumi, Kano, Kyoko, Taya, Shin-ichiro, Canaani, Eli, Matsuura, Yoshiharu, ...

The dynamic rearrangement of cell–cell junctions such as tight junctions and adherens junctions is a critical step in various cellular processes, including establishment of epithelial cell polarity...

Nectin: an adhesion molecule involved in formation of synapses

Mizoguchi, Akira, Nakanishi, Hiroyuki, Kimura, Kazushi, Matsubara, Kaho, Ozaki-Kuroda, Kumi, Katata, Tatsuo, ...

The nectin–afadin system is a novel cell–cell adhesion system that organizes adherens junctions cooperatively with the cadherin–catenin system in epithelial cells. Nectin is an...
