Chemical compound and disease context of Diencephalon

 

Biological context of Diencephalon

  • I suggest that a Valsalva manoeuvre, blocking venous return through the superior vena cava, may allow brief retrograde transmission of high venous pressure from the arms to the cerebral venous system, resulting in venous ischaemia to the diencephalon or mesial temporal lobes and to TGA [16].
  • Quantitative autoradiographic localization of prostaglandin E2 binding sites in monkey diencephalon [17].
  • We tested whether normal Pax-6 protein is required for early diencephalic development by examining morphology, precursor proliferation and patterns of regulatory gene expression in the embryonic diencephalon of Small-eye mice (Pax-6 mutants) [18].
  • Furthermore, Otx2 under the AN enhancer cooperates with Emx2 in diencephalon development [19].
  • To determine whether the phenotype results from loss of GAP-43 in RGCs or in diencephalon components such as CD44/SSEA axons, wild-type, heterozygous, or homozygous GAP-43 null donor retinal tissues were grafted onto host diencephalons of all three genotypes, and graft axon growth into the optic tract region was assessed [20].

Gene context of Diencephalon

  • The transcription factor Pax6 is widely expressed throughout the developing nervous system, including most alar regions of the newly formed murine diencephalon [31].
  • Emx2 directs the development of diencephalon in cooperation with Otx2 [32].
  • We present evidence that Fgf15 shows Shh-dependent expression in the diencephalon and may participate in this interaction, at least in part, by regulating the ability of dorsal neural precursors to respond to dorsally secreted Wnt mitogens [33].
  • In the diencephalon of the mutant, Bmp4 expression is maintained, whereas Fgf8 expression is not detectable [34].
  • Msx1 is required for dorsal diencephalon patterning [35].
