Abstract
The past year has witnessed remarkable progress towards understanding the molecular genetics of neuronal survival. Gene-targeting experiments in mice have confirmed the long-standing idea that the nerve growth factor model of neuronal survival--that is, neuronal dependence on target-derived molecules during a critical period in development--is broadly applicable. Furthermore, a variety of biochemical and genetic techniques applied to both mammals and invertebrates have identified new genes involved in regulating cell survival during development.Entities:
