The human brain is thought to have the greatest complexity of gene expression of any region of the body, reflecting the diverse functions of neurons and glia. Studies of gene expression in the human brain may yield fundamental information about the phenotype of brain cells in different stages of dev

Tadpole larvae of ascidians have two sensory pigment cells in the brain. One is the otolith cell that functions as a gravity receptor, the other pigment cell is part of a primitive photosensory structure termed the ocellus. These sensory cells, like vertebrate pigment cells, contain membrane-bounded
## Background and objectives: Urokinase type plasminogen activator (upa) regulates a variety of processes involved in tissue morphogenesis, cell differentiation, migration and invasion. we analyzed the available informations to better interpret the pathogenetic relationship between upa activity and
P-Glycoprotein (PGP), a product of the multidrug resistance gene (mdr), acts as an adenosine triphosphate-dependent drug efflux system in cells. Initially, PGP was found in cancer cells, but it is now known that PGP is richly distributed in the adult brain. Passage to the central nervous system is l
