... in the dorsal cord. Later, specific muscle afferents leave other afferents behind and project into the ventral cord. Previous studies have shown that ventral spinal cord explants secrete a repellent for sensory neurites. We now find that antibodies to collapsin-1 neutralize this repellent activity. Additional...

...Alan Roberts; N. Dale; O. P. Ottersen; J. Storm-Mathisen By using an antibody to glutaraldehyde fixation products of glycine we have been able to observe the development of a defined population of spinal interneurones in the CNS of Xenopus laevis embryos. The first glycine immunoreactive (GLY...

...Masatoshi Takeichi Cadherins are a family of glycoproteins involved in the Ca 2+ -dependent cell-cell adhesion mechanism which is detected in most kinds of tissues. Inhibition of the cadherin activity with antibodies induces dissociation of cell layers, indicating a fundamental importance...

... immunofluorescence microscopy employing affinity-purified rabbit antibodies against cell-CAM 105. The embryonal stages investigated comprised morulae, normal day-4 blastocysts, and delayed and adhesive blastocysts obtained by using the method of experimentally delayed implantation. Cell-CAM 105 was absent...

.... By necessity, if such a contractile system is to exert a force, these filaments must be anchored in some way to the cell membrane. In this study, the presence of the actin-binding protein, spectrin (fodrin), is demonstrated in the neurectoderm of neurulating mouse embryos using antispectrin antibodies...
