developmental disorder characterized by growth and cognitive retardation; abnormalities of …

Analysis of neurogenesis in a mammalian neuroepithelium: proliferation and differentiation of an olfactory neuron precursor in vitro

AL Calof, DM Chikaraishi - Neuron, 1989 - Elsevier
Abstract Development of a culture system for mammalian olfactory epithelium has permitted
the process of neurogenesis to be examined in vitro. Antibody markers allowing the …

[HTML][HTML] Cell lineages and the logic of proliferative control

…, KK Gokoffski, FYM Wan, Q Nie, AL Calof - PLoS biology, 2009 - journals.plos.org
It is widely accepted that the growth and regeneration of tissues and organs is tightly
controlled. Although experimental studies are beginning to reveal molecular mechanisms …

GDF11 controls the timing of progenitor cell competence in developing retina

…, HH Wu, AD Lander, KM Lyons, MM Matzuk, AL Calof - Science, 2005 - science.org
The orderly generation of cell types in the developing retina is thought to be regulated by
changes in the competence of multipotent progenitors. Here, we show that a secreted factor, …

[HTML][HTML] Autoregulation of neurogenesis by GDF11

…, S Jaramillo, KM Lyons, JE Johnson, AL Calof - Neuron, 2003 - cell.com
In the olfactory epithelium (OE), generation of new neurons by neuronal progenitors is
inhibited by a signal from neurons themselves. Here we provide evidence that this feedback …

Identification and molecular regulation of neural stem cells in the olfactory epithelium

CL Beites, S Kawauchi, CE Crocker, AL Calof - Experimental cell research, 2005 - Elsevier
The sensory neurons that subserve olfaction, olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs), are
regenerated throughout life, making the neuroepithelium in which they reside [the olfactory …

[HTML][HTML] Multiple Organ System Defects and Transcriptional Dysregulation in the Nipbl+/− Mouse, a Model of Cornelia de Lange Syndrome

S Kawauchi, AL Calof, R Santos, ME Lopez-Burks… - PLoS …, 2009 - journals.plos.org
Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) is a multi-organ system birth defects disorder linked,

Fgf8 expression defines a morphogenetic center required for olfactory neurogenesis and nasal cavity development in the mouse

…, JM Hébert, SK McConnell, I Mason, AL Calof - 2005 - journals.biologists.com
In vertebrate olfactory epithelium (OE), neurogenesis proceeds continuously, suggesting
that endogenous signals support survival and proliferation of stem and progenitor cells. We …

BMPs inhibit neurogenesis by a mechanism involving degradation of a transcription factor

J Shou, PC Rim, AL Calof - Nature neuroscience, 1999 - nature.com
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), negative regulators of neural determination in the
early embryo, were found to be potent inhibitors of neurogenesis in olfactory epithelium (OE) …
