Axonin-1/TAG-1 is required for pathfinding of granule cell axons in the developing cerebellumThomas Baeriswyl
Institute of Zoology, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Neural Dev 3:7. 2008..Axonin-1/TAG-1 was shown to promote neurite outgrowth in vitro and to be required for commissural and sensory axon pathfinding in vivo...
Temporal control of gene silencing by in ovo electroporationThomas Baeriswyl
Institute of Zoology, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
Methods Mol Biol 442:231-44. 2008..The combination of the easy accessibility of the chicken embryo and RNAi provides a unique opportunity for temporal and spatial control of gene silencing during development...
Nectin-like molecules/SynCAMs are required for post-crossing commissural axon guidanceVera Niederkofler
Institute of Molecular Life Sciences, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, CH 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Development 137:427-35. 2010..It is expressed by floorplate cells and interacts with Necls/SynCAMs expressed by commissural axons to mediate a turning response in post-crossing commissural axons...
Sonic hedgehog guides post-crossing commissural axons both directly and indirectly by regulating Wnt activityElena Domanitskaya
Institute of Molecular Life Sciences, University of Zurich, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
J Neurosci 30:11167-76. 2010..Thus, Shh affects post-crossing axon guidance both directly and indirectly by regulating Wnt function...
Sonic hedgehog guides commissural axons along the longitudinal axis of the spinal cordDimitris Bourikas
University of Zurich, Institute of Zoology, Winterthurerstrasse 190, CH-8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Nat Neurosci 8:297-304. 2005..Rather, functional in vivo studies showed that the repulsive effect of Shh on postcommissural axons was mediated by Hedgehog interacting protein (Hip)...
Gene Silencing by Injection and Electroporation of dsRNA in Avian EmbryosOlivier Mauti
Institute of Zoology, University of Zurich, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
CSH Protoc 2008:pdb.prot5094. 2008..Proteins with slow turnover may require RNAi at earlier stages, ideally before the onset of gene expression. The electroporation parameters can be adjusted such that only a specific population of neurons is targeted in the spinal cord...
