Sentence examples for morphogenesis and plasticity from inspiring English sources
Li, Z., Okamoto, K.-I. K.-I.sHayashi& Sheng, M. The importance of dendritic mitochondria in the morphogenesis and plasticitY of spines and synapses.
Dendritic morphogenesis and plasticity are based on rapid, dynamic remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton [4], [17], [18].
Because altered dendritic spine morphogenesis and plasticity are an endophenotype of many neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders, the molecular mechanisms that control spine plasticity and pathology have been under intense investigation over the past few years.
Special interest should focus on factors and signals that coordinate the interplay between the pre- and postsynaptic compartments during synapse morphogenesis and plasticity, which appear involved in several types of mental disorders [15].
We found target genes critical for GLUTN specification and forebrain patterning, including those involved in neuronal morphogenesis and plasticity (e.g., Ctnnd2), transcriptional regulation (e.g., Tlx1), and cytokine signaling (e.g., Bmp2 and Lif).
Further evidence for the critical role of mitochondria in neuronal activity is the finding that loss of mitochondria from axon terminals result in defective synaptic transmission in Drosophila [78] [80] and that dendritic mitochondria are essential in the morphogenesis and plasticity of spines and synapses in hippocampal tissue slices [81], [82].
Neuronal time-lapse imaging, behavioral analyses, and electrophysiological recordings from genetically modified mice were used to show that WAVE-1 signaling complexes control aspects of neuronal morphogenesis and synaptic plasticity.
Prostaglandins induce glial release of glutamate [18]; glutamate can then act on neurons to regulate spine morphogenesis and synaptic plasticity.
Two non-receptor tyrosine kinases involved in neurite outgrowth, dendritic spine morphogenesis and synaptic plasticity, the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and C-Src, also co-immunoprecipitated with Dp71.
Dp71-DAPC is also associated with key signaling proteins such as FAK, c-Src and Grb2, proteins known to contribute to neurite outgrowth, dendritic spine morphogenesis and synaptic plasticity [24] [26].
The role of stromally derived microenvironmental epigenetic effectors in modulating epithelial growth, hormonal response, morphogenesis and epithelial plasticity is discussed.
