Journal ArticleDOI

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Daniel J. Klionsky, +1287 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visualizing an Olfactory Sensory Map

Peter Mombaerts, +7 more
- 15 Nov 1996 - 
TL;DR: A genetic approach is developed to visualize axons from olfactory sensory neurons expressing a given odorant receptor, as they project to the Olfactory bulb, which provides direct support for a model in which a topographic map of receptor activation encodes odor quality in the ofactory bulb.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Scgb1a1+ Clara Cells in the Long-Term Maintenance and Repair of Lung Airway, but Not Alveolar, Epithelium

Emma L. Rawlins, +7 more
- 05 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: The results support a model in which the trachea, bronchioles, and alveoli are maintained by distinct populations of epithelial progenitor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Odorant Receptors Govern the Formation of a Precise Topographic Map

Fan Wang, +3 more
- 03 Apr 1998 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that deletions or nonsense mutations in the P2 odorant receptor gene cause the axons of these cells to wander rather than converge on a specific glomerulus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurotrophins and netrins require calcineurin/NFAT signaling to stimulate outgrowth of embryonic axons.

Isabella A. Graef, +9 more
- 30 May 2003 - 
TL;DR: The data indicate that the ability of these embryonic axons to respond to growth factors with rapid outgrowth requires activation of calcineurin/NFAT signaling by these factors.
