Protein identified that can disrupt embryonic brain development and neuron migration
Interneurons ? nerve cells that function as ?dimmers? ? play an important role in the brain. Their formation and migration to the cerebral cortex during the embryonic stage of development is crucial to normal brain functioning. Abnormal interneuron development and migration can eventually lead to a range of disorders and diseases, from epilepsy to Alzheimer's. New research has identified two proteins, Sip1 and Unc5b, that play an important role in the development and migration of interneurons to the cerebral cortex ? a breakthrough in our understanding of early brain development.
