BMP7 ‐induced dendritic growth in sympathetic neurons requires p75NTR signaling
ABSTRACT
Dendritic morphology is a critical determinant of neuronal connectivity, and in postganglionic sympathetic neurons, tonic activity correlates directly with the size of the dendritic arbor. Thus, identifying signaling mechanisms that regulate dendritic arborization of sympathetic neurons is important to understanding how functional neural circuitry is established and maintained in the sympathetic nervous system. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) promote dendritic growth in sympathetic neurons; however, downstream signaling events that link BMP receptor activation to dendritic growth are poorly characterized. We pr...

Age ‐related and light‐induced plasticity in opsin gene expression and in primary and secondary visual centers of the nectar‐feeding ant Camponotus rufipes
ABSTRACT
Camponotus rufipes workers are characterized by an age‐related polyethism. In the initial weeks of adult life, young workers perform tasks inside the nest before they switch to multimodal foraging tasks outside. We tested the hypothesis that this transition is accompanied by profound adaptations in the peripheral and central visual systems. Our results show that C. rufipes workers of all tested ages (between 1 and 42 days) express three genes encoding for ultraviolet (UV), blue (BL), and long‐wavelength (LW1) sensitive opsins in their retina, which are likely to provide the substrate for trichromatic color vis...

Delays in GABAergic Interneuron Development and Behavioral Inhibition after Prenatal Stress
In conclusion, prenatal stress resulted in a delay in GABAergic cell number and maturation of the parvalbumin subtype. Influences of prenatal stress on GABAergic populations during developmentally dynamic periods and during adulthood may be relevant to the anxiety‐like behaviors that occur after prenatal stress.

Wnt/β‐catenin‐signaling and the formation of Müller glia‐derived progenitors in the chick retina
ABSTRACT
Müller glia can be stimulated to de‐differentiate, proliferate, and form Müller glia‐derived progenitor cells (MGPCs) that are capable of producing retinal neurons. The signaling pathways that influence the de‐differentiation of mature Müller glia and proliferation of MGPCs may include the Wnt‐pathway. The purpose of this study was to investigate how Wnt‐signaling influences the formation of MGPCs in the chick retina in vivo. In NMDA‐damaged retinas where MGPCs are known to form, we find dynamic changes in retinal levels of potential readouts of Wnt‐signaling, including dkk1, dkk3, axin2, c‐myc,...
