## Abstract Expression of polysialic acid (PSA) promotes migration of progenitor cells from the subventricular zone (SVZ) to the olfactory bulb, where they differentiate into interneurons. This differentiation has been found to coincide with a loss of PSA. Moreover, specific removal of PSA from the

Stem cells from the adult forebrain of mice were stimulated to form clones in vitro using fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2). At concentrations above 10 ng/ml of FGF-2, very few clones gave rise to neurons; however, if FGF-2 was removed after 5 days, 20 -30% of clones subsequently gave rise to neuro
## Abstract Fimbriaβfornix (FF), the septoβhippocampal pathway, was transected to model Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is characterized by loss of cholinergic afferent fibers in hippocampus. Various alternations may happen in the deafferented hippocampus. In this study, we determined the expressio
Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are a unique type of macroglia with axonal growth-promoting properties. However, our understanding of the factors that regulate OECs is at early stages. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lipid that influences diverse functions in the nervous system. Recent studies s
## Abstract New neurons are continuously generated in the hippocampus of the adult mammalian brain, and __N__βmethylβDβaspartate receptor (NMDAβR) antagonists have been found to increase the number of newly generated neurons in the dentate gyrus (DG) of the adult hippocampus. In this study, we exam
During development in the chick embryo, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) neurons migrate along the olfactory nerve from the olfactory epithelium to the forebrain. At embryonic day 5.5 (E5.5) to E6.0, the majority of LHRH neurons begin to enter the medial forebrain and then course dorsoca
