## Abstract Eph receptors and their ephrin ligands constitute the largest subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases and are components of the cell signaling pathways involved during development. Eph and ephrin overexpression have been documented in a variety of human cancers including gastrointestinal
Based on recent experimental studies of complementary gradients of receptor density (R) on the retinal surface and ligand density (L) on the tectal surface, and mapping of the high point on the receptor gradient to the low point on the ligand and vice versa, the servomechanism model was constructed
A previous study from this laboratory showed that sprouting of serotoninergic axons in the hamster's superior colliculus (SC) induced by a single subcutaneous injection of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT) at birth (postnatal day 0; P-0) resulted in an abnormal terminal distribution of the uncrossed
