An epigenetic barrier sets the timing of human neuronal maturation

Gabriele Ciceri, Arianna Baggiolini, Hyunwoo Cho…·Lorenz Studer

Chromatin regulators including EZH2, EHMT1/2, and DOT1L establish an epigenetic barrier in human neural progenitors that poises maturation genes and sets the protracted pace of cortical neuron maturation.

Disruption to NKCC1 impairs the response of myelinating Schwann cells to neuronal activity and leads to severe peripheral nerve pathology

Linde Kegel, Katy LH Marshall-Phelps, Marion Baraban…·David Anthony Lyons

This study shows that disrupting NKCC1 in Schwann cells impairs their response to neuronal activity, leading to myelin defects and nerve pathology, which can be reversed by TTX treatment.
