High impact information on Kirrel3

  • Using the transgenic mouse in which the majority of OSNs express a particular OR, we identified such genes coding for the homophilic adhesive molecules Kirrel2/Kirrel3 and repulsive molecules ephrin-A5/EphA5 [1].
  • Our data suggest that mKirre is cleaved by metalloproteinases and that the extracellular domain of mKirre is responsible for supporting hematopoietic stem cells [2].
  • In the adult brain, mKirre mRNA was highly expressed in the olfactory bulb, the piriform cortex, the cochlear nucleus, and the cerebellum [3].
  • At embryonic day (E) 11.5, we could observe mKirre mRNA in the differentiating zones of various regions, such as the caudate-putamen, the geniculate body, the thalamus, the amygdala, and the brainstem [3].
  • SST-2, SST-3 and SST-4 were specific to L [4].
 

Anatomical context of Kirrel3

  • After birth, we could first observe high expression of mKirre mRNA in the glomerular and mitral layers of the olfactory bulb, the cortical plate of the neocortex, the cochlear nucleus, and the molecular and granule cell layers of the cerebellum [3].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Kirrel3

  • In the present study, to gain insights into the function of mKirre, we investigated the expression pattern of mKirre gene in the developing and adult mouse brain using in situ hybridization [3].
