General description
The monoclonal antibody Radial Glial Cell Marker-2, clone RC2 (RC2) was generated in mouse by conventional hybridoma methodology. The antigen recognized by RC2 is robust, allowing aldehyde fixation appropriate to high resolution light and electron microscopic analyses. From the neural tube stage of fetal development the antibody delineates throughout the central nervous system a subpopulation of neuroepithelial cells which have a radial bipolar morphology. RC2 also recognizes monopolar cell forms in the spinal cord and the cerebellum as early as E15, and in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampal formation from the day of birth. Monopolar forms in the cerebellum are inferred to be progenitors of Bergmann glia. The robustness of the antigen recognized by RC2 makes this probe a valuable tool to study the morphological transformations of the bipolar radial glia during their mitotic turnover. It also provides a sensitive stain for the study of the organization and the histogenetic role of the overall radial fiber system (3).

The unique mental abilities of humans are rooted in the immensely expanded and folded neocortex, which reflects the expansion of neural progenitors, especially basal progenitors including basal radial glia (bRGs) and intermediate progenitor cells (IPCs). We found that constitutively active

Endocannabinoids exert an important neuromodulatory role via presynaptic cannabinoid CB1 receptors and may also participate in the control of neural cell death and survival. The function of the endocannabinoid system has been extensively studied in differentiated neurons, but its potential

Current models of brain development support the view that VEGF, a signaling protein secreted by neuronal cells, regulates angiogenesis and neuronal development. Here we demonstrate an autonomous and pivotal role for endothelial cell-derived VEGF that has far-reaching consequences for mouse
