A role for Cajal–Retzius cells and reelin in the development of hippocampal connections
Abstract
During development of the nervous system, specific recognition molecules provide the cues necessary for the formation of neural connections. In some regions, guiding cues for axonal pathfinding and target selection are provided by specific cells that exist only transiently during development, such as the floorplate or the cortical subplate. In the hippocampus, distinct groups of fibres innervate different layers. We have tested the hypothesis that transient neurons in the hippocampus provide positional information for the targeting of these fibres. Here we report that ablation of Cajal-Retzius cells in organotypic slice cultures of hippocampus prevented the ingrowth of entorhinal but not of commissural afferents. Experiments inhibiting Reelin (an extracellular matrix protein expressed by Cajal-Retzius cells) and analysis of reeler mutant mice showed dramatic abnormalities in the development of entorhinal afferents. Thus Cajal-Retzius cells and reelin are essential for the formation of layer-specific hippocampal connections.

In the citing paper
“This epitope region is essential for the Reelin functions, because CR-50 antibody inhibits laminar pattern formation in cortical reaggregation cultures (13), Purkinje cell alignment in cerebellar explant cultures (20), and an axonal branching pattern in the entorhinohippocampal pathway in vitro (19) and disrupts hippocampal development in vivo (21).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
