The neural cell adhesion molecule L1 is a cell surface glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily which mediates adhesion between neural cells. The possibility that similar cell-cell recognition mechanisms may be shared by the nervous and immune systems prompted us to study the expression and fu

## Abstract L1 and NCAM, two cell adhesion molecules of the immunoglobulin superfamily, have been implicated in the formation of neural circuits, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive function. In this study, we sought to investigate whether differences in the steadyβstate levels of L1 and NCAM expres
The expression of neural cell adhesion molecules and myelin-specific molecules is precisely regulated according to cell type and developmental age. We investigated whether different isoforms of these molecules change during development of oligodendrocytes. Immature oligodendrocytes cultured from emb
