Recent studies using time-lapse imaging of neuronal migration are giving investigators an increasingly more detailed understanding of the mitotic behavior of radial glia and the migrating behavior ...

However, recent studies indicate that different neuronal types adopt distinct modes of migration in the developing cortex. Here, we review evidence for two modes of radial movement: somal ...

This previously unappreciated "coincidence detection circuit" highlights that the interplay of these opposing pathways ensures proper neuronal migration. Solecki used super-resolution microscopy ...

and demonstrated that this current can guide migration of a cell population known as the neural crest”, highlights Dr. Elias H. Barriga, the corresponding author who led the study. Initially ...

Note how cells within the cluster spread in the absence of EFs and the consistent anodal migration in the presence of EFs. Neural crest tagged with nuclear RFP (magenta) and membrane GFP (cyan).
