Dlx5/6 regulate perineuronal net-synapse coupling and stabilize adult cortical Parvalbumin neurons networks

This study shows that Dlx5/6 regulate perineuronal net homeostasis and synaptic organization in adult cortical PV interneurons, linking extracellular matrix stability to network dynamics.

Pleiotropic function of Dlx5/6 in coordinating the development of mammalian vocal and auditory organs

This study investigates the role of Dlx5/6 genes in the coordinated development of mammalian vocal and auditory organs through mutant mouse models, revealing pleiotropic effects on multiple systems.

Probing the origin of matching functional jaws: roles of Dlx5/6 in cranial neural crest cells.

The paper investigates the role of Dlx5/6 in cranial neural crest cells in determining jaw identity and symmetry, showing that their expression in NCCs is critical for lower jaw development and jaw matching.
