High impact information on LPPR4

  • PRG-1 is specifically expressed in neurons and is located in the membranes of outgrowing axons [1].
  • Expression analyses of the neurite growth-related proteins f-actin, neuronal class III beta-tubulin and plasticity-related gene-1, and stereological estimates of growth cone densities revealed a more vigorous regenerative response in the proximal nerve stump of blind SD/RCS rats compared with SD animals at 5-7 days after buccal nerve transection [2].
  • Plasticity-related serine proteases in the brain (review) [3].
