The role of the extracellular calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) in development and plasticity. (360G-Wellcome-089639_Z_09_Z)

£141,950

1. Investigate a possible role for CaSR in regulating dendritic spine density & morphology in the hippocampus 2. Further characterize the published role of CaSR in regulating gross dendritic morphology in developing neurons [1] 3. Extend preliminary observations suggesting CaSR may have a role in early development of sympathetic neuroblasts and neurons (see Appendix) 4. Participate in studies to elucidate the intracellular signaling pathways by which CaSR promotes axon growth in fetal sympathetic neurons
