A Thalamocortical Cell-Adhesion Code Primes Sensory Cortical Specification

Teresa Guillamón-Vivancos, Lorenzo Puche-Aroca, L. Wang, I. Fuentes-Jurado, Dorien Vandael, D. Torres, Mar Aníbal-Martínez, Francisco J. Martini, Guillermina López‐Bendito

This paper identifies cell-adhesion molecules that prime sensory cortical identity through thalamocortical targeting before thalamic innervation.

A prenatal window for enhancing spatial resolution of cortical barrel maps

Mar Aníbal-Martínez, Lorenzo Puche-Aroca, Elena Pérez-Montoyo, Gabriele Pumo, M. Pilar Madrigal, Luis Miguel Rodríguez-Malmierca, Francisco J. Martini, Filippo M. Rijli, Guillermina López‐Bendito

The paper shows that prenatal whisker ablation enhances upper lip whisker barrel definition through thalamic transcriptional changes, independent of receptor type and density.

Spontaneous thalamic activity modulates the cortical innervation of the primary visual nucleus of the thalamus

Verónica Moreno‐Juan, Mar Aníbal-Martínez, Álvaro Herrero-Navarro, Miguel Valdeolmillos, Francisco J. Martini, Guillermina López‐Bendito

This study shows that spontaneous thalamic activity influences the timing and spatial organization of corticogeniculate innervation in the developing visual thalamus.
