... and then tangentially, whereas neurons destined for the medial VTA undergo primarily radial migration. We show that tangentially migrating dopaminergic neurons express the components of the reelin signaling pathway, whereas dopaminergic neurons in their initial, radial migration phase express CXC chemokine receptor 4...

... implicated in regulating neuronal migration, their respective roles in the tangential migration of cortical interneurons remain unknown. Here we show that loss of RhoA and Cdc42 in the ventricular zone (VZ) of the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE) using Olig2-Cre mice causes moderate or severe defects...

... of the forebrain in vertebrates. GABAergic neurons originate from the ganglionic eminence in mammals and migrate tangentially to the cortex. We are interested in differences and similarities in tangential migration patterns across corresponding telencephalic territories in mammals and reptiles. Using morphological...

The polysialic form of NCAM (PSA-NCAM) is another molecule that is involved in tangential migrations observed in the olfactory system ( Hu et al., 1996 ; Ono...
