Which comes first in fragile X syndrome, dendritic spine dysgenesis or defects in circuit plasticity?Carlos Portera-Cailliau
Departments of Neurology and Neurobiology, David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Neuroscientist 18:28-44. 2012..The resulting data will be vital in guiding translational research that can identify novel molecular targets for therapy in this devastating disorder...
Diverse modes of axon elaboration in the developing neocortexCarlos Portera-Cailliau
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, New York, USA
PLoS Biol 3:e272. 2005..Given the identical layer 1 territory upon which CR and TC axons grow, the differences in their structure and dynamics likely reflect distinct intrinsic growth programs for axons of long projection neurons versus local interneurons...
Movement disorders fellowship training program at Columbia University Medical Center in 2001-2002Carlos Portera-Cailliau
Department of Neurology, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, New York, USA
Mov Disord 21:479-85. 2006..Video rounds allow greater exposure to uncommon diagnoses. Similar data from other movement disorder training programs are needed to help create guidelines for formal accreditation and to improve clinical training in this subspecialty...
A familial form of pallidoluysionigral degeneration and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with divergent clinical presentationsCarlos Portera-Cailliau
UCLA Department of Neurology, Reed Neurological Research Center, 710 Westwood Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
J Neuropathol Exp Neurol 66:650-9. 2007..Thus, this disorder may represent a novel autosomal dominantly inherited and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder with a spectrum of clinical presentations but common neuropathologic features...
Wallerian degeneration of zebrafish trigeminal axons in the skin is required for regeneration and developmental pruningSeanna M Martin
Department of Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Development 137:3985-94. 2010..We propose that spontaneously pruned fragments of peripheral sensory axons must be removed by a WD-like mechanism to permit efficient innervation of the epidermis...
Local hemodynamics dictate long-term dendritic plasticity in peri-infarct cortexRicardo Mostany
Departments of Neurology and Neurobiology, David Geffen School of Medicine at University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California 90095, USA
J Neurosci 30:14116-26. 2010..Our data suggest that maintaining tissue perfusion in the area surrounding the infarct could hasten or augment synaptic plasticity and functional recovery after stroke...
Glutamate induces the elongation of early dendritic protrusions via mGluRs in wild type mice, but not in fragile X miceAlberto Cruz-Martín
Department of Neurology, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, United States of America
PLoS ONE 7:e32446. 2012..Thus, absence of FMRP may impair the ability of cortical pyramidal neurons to respond to glutamate released from nearby pre-synaptic terminals, which may be a critical step to initiate synaptogenesis and stabilize spines...
Delayed stabilization of dendritic spines in fragile X miceAlberto Cruz-Martín
Department of Neurology, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California 90095, USA
J Neurosci 30:7793-803. 2010..Thus, absence of FMRP delays spine stabilization and dysregulated mGluR signaling in FXS may partially normalize this early synaptic defect...
Absence of large-scale dendritic plasticity of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in peri-infarct cortexRicardo Mostany
Department of Neurology, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, California 90095, USA
J Neurosci 31:1734-8. 2011..These results help resolve a long-standing debate regarding the role of large-scale dendritic plasticity of pyramidal neurons in functional recovery after cortical injury...
Activity-regulated dynamic behavior of early dendritic protrusions: evidence for different types of dendritic filopodiaCarlos Portera-Cailliau
Department of Biological Sciences, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027, USA
J Neurosci 23:7129-42. 2003....
Long-term, high-resolution imaging in the mouse neocortex through a chronic cranial windowAnthony Holtmaat
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, New York, NY, USA
Nat Protoc 4:1128-44. 2009..The entire dendritic and axonal arbor of individual neurons can be reconstructed...
Foxp-mediated suppression of N-cadherin regulates neuroepithelial character and progenitor maintenance in the CNSDavid L Rousso
Department of Neurobiology, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, 610 Charles Young Drive East, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Neuron 74:314-30. 2012..Together, these data reveal a Foxp-based transcriptional mechanism that regulates the integrity and cytoarchitecture of neuroepithelial progenitors...
Simultaneous two-photon calcium imaging at different depths with spatiotemporal multiplexingAdrian Cheng
Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, USA
Nat Methods 8:139-42. 2011..We demonstrate calcium imaging at multiple axial planes in the intact mouse brain to monitor network activity of ensembles of cortical neurons in three spatial dimensions...
Internally mediated developmental desynchronization of neocortical network activityPEYMAN GOLSHANI
Departmens of Neurology, David Geffen School of Medicine at University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California 90095, USA
J Neurosci 29:10890-9. 2009..Therefore, developmental desynchronization of spontaneous neuronal activity is a fundamental network transition in the neocortex that appears to be intrinsically generated...
Developmentally regulated impediments to skin reinnervation by injured peripheral sensory axon terminalsGeorgeann S O'Brien
Department of Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Curr Biol 19:2086-90. 2009..Thus, as in the CNS, impediments to reinnervation in the PNS arise after initial establishment of axon arbor structure...
