Optogenetic activation of entorhinal projection neurons alters the target recognition and circuit development without enhancing axon regeneration after axotomy in organotypic slices.

This study uses organotypic slice cultures to show that optogenetic activation of entorhinal neurons does not enhance axon regeneration after injury but alters target recognition and circuit development.

Involvement of mechanical cues in the migration of Cajal-Retzius cells in the marginal zone during neocortical development

This study investigates how mechanical and chemical cues influence the migration of Cajal-Retzius cells in the developing neocortex, showing that mechanical properties and route stiffness affect their distribution.
