Major outputs of the neocortex are conveyed by corticothalamic axons (CTAs), which form
reciprocal connections with thalamocortical axons, and corticosubcerebral axons (CSAs) …

Mitochondria are critical for the function and maintenance of myelinated axons notably through
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. A direct by-product of this ATP production is …

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 1 A (CMT1A) results from a duplication of the PMP22 gene in
Schwann cells and a deficit of myelination in peripheral nerves. Patients with CMT1A have …

Attractive and repulsive molecules such as Semaphorins (Sema) trigger rapid responses
that control the navigation of axonal growth cones. The role of vesicular traffic in axonal …

Trio, a member of the Dbl family of guanine nucleotide exchange factors, activates Rac1
downstream of netrin 1/DCC signalling in axon outgrowth and guidance. Although it has been …

While lactate shuttle theory states that glial cells metabolize glucose into lactate to shuttle it
to neurons, how glial cells support axonal metabolism and function remains unclear. Lactate …

In mammals, thalamic axons are guided internally toward their neocortical target by corridor
(Co) neurons that act as axonal guideposts. The existence of Co‐like neurons in non‐…

We built and commissioned a new type of Compton polarimeter to measure the electron
beam polarization at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Virginia, USA). The …

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 1A (CMT1A) results from a duplication of the PMP22 gene
leading to an excess of PMP22, a deficit of myelination and an instability of the myelin sheath in …

Mitochondria are critical for the function and the maintenance of myelinated axons notably
through the ATP production. A by-product of this activity is reactive oxygen species (ROS), …
