## Abstract Blockage of GABAโA receptors in hippocampal neuronal cultures triggers synchronous bursts of spikes initiating neuronal plasticity, partly mediated by changes of gene expression. By using specific pharmacological blockers, we have investigated which sources of Ca^2+^ entry primarily con

Tau protein is a microtubule-associated protein normally expressed in neurons. In Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains, phosphorylated tau accumulates in paired helical filaments which form neurofibrillary tangles in affected neurons; moreover, tau mRNA expression is increased in affected regions of AD b
Nerve growth factor (NGF) initiates its biological effects by promoting the dimerization and activation of the tyrosine kinase receptor TrkA. The requirements for NGF signaling through the TrkA receptor have been defined extensively from studies in immortalized cells, involving transfection of NIH 3

## Abstract Ror1 and Ror2 are two novel receptor tyrosine kinases that have been implicated in neuronal differentiation in __Caenorhabditis elegans__. As a first step toward elucidating their role in the mammalian brain, we analyzed their expression and localization patterns in hippocampal neurons.
In central neurons, dendritic differentiation begins well after axonal elongation and is accompanied by the compartmentation of the microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) in the somatodendritic domain. Whether MAP2 plays a role in the morphological and functional maturation of dendrites remains an
