#spinal — Public Fediverse posts

Hi #neuromastodon, today the latest preprint of an extremely cool, 100% Uruguay-based team has been released :mate:

A filopodia-based dendritic mechanosensory compartment in CSF-contacting neurons

There we show that, contrary to what zebrafish has taught, these spinal cord neurons from adult mice (CSF-cN) lack cilia. Furthermore, they show multiple filopodia and are able to sense mechanical stimuli through PKD2L1. That, and other nice stuff.

If you didn't know what to read this weekend, here you have it:

Hope you enjoy it.

The #cancer is called pediatric diffuse midline #glioma. As its name suggests, the #malignancy arises along the midline of the #brain or #spinal cord and infiltrates surrounding tissue in a way that makes it impossible to remove with surgery.
