Comparative functional analysis provides evidence for a crucial role for the homeobox gene Nkx2.1/Titf-1 in forebrain evolution
van den Akker, Willem M.R.; Brox, Aurora; Puelles, Luis; Durston, Antony J.; Medina Hernández, Loreta Mª (Wiley, 2008)Knockout of the Nkx2.1 (Titf-1) homeobox gene in the mouse leads to severe malformation and size reduction of the basal telencephalon/preoptic area and basal hypothalamus, indicating an important role of this gene in ... -
Expression patterns of developmental regulatory genes show comparable divisions in the telencephalon of Xenopus and mouse: insights into the evolution of the forebrain
Medina Hernández, Loreta Mª; Brox, Aurora; Legaz, Isabel; García López, Margarita; Puelles, Luis (Elsevier, 2005)In this study, we review data on the existence of comparable divisions and subdivisions in the telencephalon of different groups of tetrapods based on expression of some developmental regulatory genes, having a particular ... -
Histogenetic compartments of the mouse centromedial and extended amygdala based on gene expression patterns during development
García Lopez, Margarita; Abellán Ródenas, Antonio; Legaz, Isabel; Rubenstein, John L.R.; Puelles, Luis; Medina Hernández, Loreta Mª (Wiley, 2008)The amygdala controls emotional and social behavior and regulates instinctive reflexes such as defense and reproduction by way of descending projections to the hypothalamus and brainstem. The descending amygdalar projections ... -
Identification of the anterior nucleus of the ansa lenticularis in birds as the homologue of the mammalian subthalamic nucleus
Jiao, Yun; Medina Hernández, Loreta Mª; Veenman, C. Leo; Toledo, Claudio; Puelles, Luis; Reiner, Anton (Society for Neuroscience, 2000)In mammals, the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a glutamatergic diencephalic cell group that develops in the caudal hypothalamus and migrates to a position above the cerebral peduncle. By its input from the external pallidal ... -
Radial and tangential migration of telencephalic somatostatin neurons originated from the mouse diagonal area
Puelles, Luis; Morales Delgado, N.; Merchán, P.; Castro Robles, Beatriz; Martínez de la Torre, M.; Díaz, C.; Ferran, J. L. (Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2016)The telencephalic subpallium is the source of various GABAergic interneuron cohorts that invade the pallium via tangential migration. Based on genoarchitectonic studies, the subpallium has been subdivided into four major ...
