Research field: Mechanisms underlying the guidance of neuronal migration in developing brain

1. Objectives:

My laboratory was set up in March 2005. The long-term goal of the laboratory is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the proper migration and distribution of different types of neurons in developing brain, one of the key steps for brain morphogenesis. Currently, we focus on the guidance mechanism for the radial migration of cortical neurons by diffusible guidance factors and the intracellular molecular machinery to drive the neuronal migration. A combination of approaches including single neuron migration assay, embryo electroporation, tissue culture, molecular manipulations, and optical imaging, are used to tackle these questions. Human genetic studies showed that many neurological disorders are caused by defects in and neuronal migration axon pathfinding during development. This line of study will shed a new light on the diagnosis and therapy of this group of diseases.


2. Main Topics

(1) Guidance of the cortical radial migration by extracellular and intracellular factors

Formation of the laminar structure of the mammalian cerebral cortex requires a well-coordinated migration of cohorts of post-mitotic neurons along radial glial fibers from the ventribular zone (VZ) towards superficial layers of the cortical plate (CP) during early development. We aim to clarify whether a chemotropic guidance mechanism is also engaged in the proper radial migration and lamination of cortical neurons (see Figure. 1). Intracellular signaling mechanisms underlying the guidance of cortical radial migration by diffusible factors are also analyzed.
(2) Molecular machinery underlying the neuronal migration and its guidance

Dissociated culture of cerebellar granule cells exhibits active neuronal migration, and provides an excellent model system for monitoring the molecular dynamics that correlates with the migratory behavior of the neuron. We also take advantage of the local rather than global perfusion of guidance factors and pharmacological agents at different sub-cellular regions of migrating neurons to dissect how the motilities of different parts of neurons are generated and coordinated during neuronal migration.
