Sentence examples for neuronal maturity from inspiring English sources

The level of MeCP2 protein in neurons increases with neuronal maturity [ 18] and it is abundantly expressed in the mature brain, almost equivalent to Histone H1 levels [ 19], but the level of MECP2 mRNA in cells is reported to not correlate with the level of MeCP2 protein in cells [ 18].

For neuronal cultures, informative measurements include the proportion of neurons in culture, the subtypes of neurons present, and the degree of neuronal maturity, which can be estimated using electrophysiological methods.

It is comforting to discover that our cultured neurons derived from various human stem cell populations revealed a similar maturation program as that revealed by comparing human adult and fetal neurons in the brain, which indirectly reflected neuronal maturity.

Colors of each circle correspond to different firing rate of the neurons, which is a highly regarded parameter for neuronal maturity.

Since the 20 neurons we analyzed were all from cultured human neurons differentiated in vitro from more primitive stem cells, we wonder whether the neuronal maturation genes (138) we identified could be used generally to mark neuronal maturity.

The 39 genes especially the 10 or so above highlighted genes may be particularly useful in the future to serve as generic biomarkers for evaluation of neuronal maturity.

This suggests that the MeCP2 protein only becomes detectable once the individual neuron reaches a certain point of maturity and is consistent with the hypothesis that MeCP2 plays an important role in maintaining neuronal maturation.

These results strongly indicate that hNPs are capable to produce PNS neurons with the appropriate synaptic machinery as an indication of neuronal functional maturity.

Aim: To determine in single preterm (P) and fullterm (F) neonates, circulating intra- and extrauterine levels of BDNF, supposingly reflecting their neuronal and immune maturity.

It thus seems that in spite of differences in network organization, neuronal makeup and maturity, the relationships between network activity characteristics and neuromodulation are largely preserved in this reduced system.

These results indicate that H2BE expression in a given neuron is tightly correlated with the identity of the co-expressed OR, and not with a specific stage of neuronal development or maturity.
