This study shows FoxP transcription factors are essential for peripheral nervous system development in chicken embryos, affecting axon guidance and neural crest cell migration.

This study shows that secretion of small extracellular vesicles is required for axon guidance at a choice point in the developing chicken spinal cord.

This paper introduces PK Mem dyes for time-lapse fluorescence imaging, showing reduced phototoxicity and improved photostability for live and fixed cell imaging.

The paper investigates the effects of Joubert Syndrome gene dysfunction in zebrafish, finding altered brain cilia, changes in neuron-related gene expression, and abnormal swimming behavior despite normal brain structure.

This study shows that primary cilia are essential for long-range axon guidance in neurons by mediating transcriptional changes in axon guidance receptors.

The paper introduces an improved open-source light-sheet microscope, mesoSPIM, with enhanced resolution, throughput, and compatibility with cleared samples.

The paper identifies Cables1 as a linker protein that connects Slit/Robo and Wnt/Frizzled signaling in commissural axon guidance during spinal cord development.

The paper introduces a novel Schmidt objective for high-resolution imaging in cleared tissues, achieving high NA, long WD, and large FOV with only two optical elements.

The paper shows that stochastic developmental processes explain individual wiring variation in the brain.

This study shows that Endoglycan negatively regulates cell-cell adhesion, affecting axon guidance and neuronal migration in the central nervous system.

The paper describes a spinal cord preparation enabling live imaging of single axons navigating midline choice points, revealing dynamic interactions with the floor plate.

The paper shows that methylation of a single CpG in an E-box upstream of the VTG TATA box blocks USF binding and estrogen-induced transcription.

The paper introduces mesoSPIM, an open-source light-sheet microscope initiative for imaging large cleared tissue samples with near-isotropic resolution.
