Astrocytes are involved in multiple brain functions in physiological conditions, participating in neuronal development, synaptic activity and homeostatic control of the extracellular environment. They also actively participate in the... more
Transplantation of dopaminergic neurons can potentially improve the clinical outcome of Parkinson's disease, a neurological disorder resulting from degeneration of mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons. In particular, transplantation of... more
Inspired by the Theory of Neuronal Group Selection (TNGS), we have carried out synthesis of frequency generator via spiking neurons network through genetic algorithm. The TNGS sets that a neuronal group is the most basic unit in the... more
The developing sensory neurons of the mammalian ear require two sequentially activated bHLH genes, Neurog1 and Neurod1, for their development. Neurons never develop in Neurog1 null mice, and most neurons die in Neurod1 null mutants, a... more
The glutamate system is involved in many aspects of neuronal synaptic strength and function during development and throughout life. Synapse formation in early brain development, synapse maintenance, and synaptic plasticity are all... more
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders with a strong genetic etiology. Cytogenetic abnormalities have been detected in 5–10% of the patients with autism. In this study, we present the clinical,... more
Adenosine deaminase-1 and -2 (ADAR-1 and -2) are double-stranded RNA-specific enzymes involved in the editing of genes including serotonin 2C receptor (5-HT2CR) mRNA and ADAR-2 pre-mRNA. We reported that the editing efficacy of 5-HT2CR... more
