The cellular prion protein, encoded by the gene Prnp, has been reported to be a receptor of β-amyloid. Their interaction is mandatory for neurotoxic effects β-amyloid oligomers. In this study, we aimed explore whether protein participates in spreading α-synuclein. Results demonstrate that Prnp expression not α-synuclein spreading. However, although pathological can take place absence expanded faster PrPC-overexpressing mice. addition, binds strongly on PrPC-expressing cells, suggesting role...

Emerging evidence points to coordinated action of chemical and mechanical cues during brain development. At early stages neocortical development, angiogenic factors chemokines such as CXCL12, ephrins, semaphorins assume crucial roles in orchestrating neuronal migration axon elongation postmitotic neurons. Here we explore the intrinsic properties developing marginal zone pallium migratory pathways distribution pioneer Cajal-Retzius cells. These neurons are generated several proliferative...
