pubmed:abstractText
During development, most cortical neurons migrate to the cortical plate (CP) radially. CP development is abnormal in reeler and other mutant mice with defective Reelin signaling. Reelin is secreted by Cajal-Retzius cells and binds to the very low density lipoprotein receptor and apolipoprotein E receptor type 2 receptors on the surface of CP cells, inducing tyrosine phosphorylation of the intracellular Dab1 adapter. As with Reelin receptors, the identification of Reelin signaling partners is hampered by genetic redundancy. Using a new in vitro embryonic slice culture system, we demonstrate that chemical inhibitors of Src family kinases and Abl, but not inhibitors of Abl alone, generate a reeler-like malformation and that inhibitors of protein kinases C induce a malformation of cortical development that is also reminiscent of reeler. Our observations demonstrate a key role for these enzymes in radial migration to the cortical plate, possibly via interference with Reelin signaling.
