[PDF][PDF] Astrocyte-neuron crosstalk through Hedgehog signaling mediates cortical synapse development

…, W Wang, ZT Herbert, O Mosto, O Olukoya, M Adam… - Cell reports, 2022 - cell.com
Neuron-glia interactions play a critical role in the regulation of synapse formation and circuit
assembly. Here we demonstrate that canonical Sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway signaling in …

Temporal and sequential transcriptional dynamics define lineage shifts in corticogenesis

T Mukhtar, J Breda, MA Adam, M Boareto… - The EMBO …, 2022 - embopress.org
The cerebral cortex contains billions of neurons, and their disorganization or misspecification
leads to neurodevelopmental disorders. Understanding how the plethora of projection …

Transcriptional profiling of sequentially generated septal neuron fates

…, TE Lacey, CM Reid, S Hrvatin, C Weinreb, MA Adam… - Elife, 2021 - elifesciences.org
The septum is a ventral forebrain structure known to regulate innate behaviors. During
embryonic development, septal neurons are produced in multiple proliferative areas from neural …

Epigenetic regulation of cortical neurogenesis; orchestrating fate switches at the right time and place

MA Adam, CC Harwell - Current opinion in neurobiology, 2020 - Elsevier
Over the last several decades the field has made tremendous progress in understanding
the proliferative behavior of cortical progenitors and the lineage relationships of their clonal …

[HTML][HTML] Developmental origin and local signals cooperate to determine septal astrocyte identity

…, F Dale-Huang, SM Hanson, W Mancia, J Liu, M Adam… - bioRxiv, 2023 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Astrocyte specification during development is influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors,
but the precise contribution of each remains poorly understood. Here we show that septal …

Transcriptional regulation of MGE progenitor proliferation by PRDM16 controls cortical GABAergic interneuron production

…, R Peixoto, W Wang, Y Xie, MA Adam… - …, 2020 - journals.biologists.com
The mammalian cortex is populated by neurons derived from neural progenitors located
throughout the embryonic telencephalon. Excitatory neurons are derived from the dorsal …

[HTML][HTML] EHMT1/GLP; biochemical function and association with brain disorders

MA Adam, AR Isles - Epigenomes, 2017 - mdpi.com
The gene EHMT1 that encodes the Euchromatic Histone Methyltransferase-1, also known
as GLP (G9a-like protein), has been associated with a number of neurodevelopmental and …

Impairments in sensory-motor gating and information processing in a mouse model of Ehmt1 haploinsufficiency

…, F David, C O'Regan, MA Adam… - Brain and …, 2020 - journals.sagepub.com
Regulators of chromatin dynamics and transcription are increasingly implicated in the
aetiology of neurodevelopmental disorders. Haploinsufficiency of EHMT1, encoding a histone …
