Modelling of the effects of En1 and En2 on hippocampal cells. by Asma Soltani (4356841)

“…In normal conditions (black lines), low levels of endogenous secreted En1 (from GABA cell for instance) could participate to dendritogenesis (1), spinogenesis (2) (insert), and mTOR signaling (3) in neighbor glutamatergic neurons. In a pathological context, such as autism (red lines), a rise of En2 expression and secretion would generate additional effects, i.e. the increase in dendritic complexity of GABA cells (4), a decrease of clustered PSD95 (5), and the mispairing of glutamatergic synapses (6) (insert). …”

Axonal regeneration was inhibited by morpholino antisense oligonucleotides for NF180. by Guixin Zhang (795314)

“…Thus within treatment groups, it was more meaningful to pool axons from multiple animals in order to calculate mean axon regeneration rates, than to calculate mean regeneration rates for each animal and then compare those means. <b>B,</b> Decrease in the fraction of MO-labeled neurons whose axon had regenerated beyond the site of a second retrograde label applied 5 mm caudal to original TX at 9 weeks post-TX, and were therefore double-labeled. * indicates difference from control is significant at p<0.001 (student’s <i>t</i> test).…”
