... + V2b interneurons ( Fig. 7 ). Ependymal cells lining the central canal of the spinal cord are derived from ventral neuroepithelial progenitors ( Fu et al., 2003 ; Yu et al., 2013 ). The ependyma is composed of a layer of ciliated mural ependymocytes interspersed with tanycytes and CSF-contacting...

.... Unlike the ependyma lining the ventricles, this ductal epithelium possesses motile cilia that are present prior to onset of the pathology. However, our in vivo analyses of CSF movement using DiI injection indicate no differences in CSF flow between the mutant and wild-type controls at early stages...

...Marilyn J. Anderson; Chi Y. Choy; Stephen G. Waxman ABSTRACT Multiple ependymal structures have been observed in regenerating spinal cord of the teleost Apteronotus albifrons . Evidence is presented for two modes of formation of the secondary ependymas: budding off from the primary ependyma, and de...
