Altered parvalbumin-positive neuron distribution in basal ganglia of individuals with Tourette syndrome

…, H Grantz, CB Saper, ML Schwartz… - Proceedings of the …, 2005 - National Acad Sciences
Tourette syndrome (TS) is a childhood neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by motor

Differential modulation of proliferation in the neocortical ventricular and subventricular zones

TF Haydar, F Wang, ML Schwartz… - Journal of …, 2000 - Soc Neuroscience
Recent studies have implicated the classical neurotransmitters GABA and glutamate in the
regulation of neural progenitor proliferation. We now show that GABA and glutamate have …

Basic fibroblast growth factor (Fgf2) is necessary for cell proliferation and neurogenesis in the developing cerebral cortex

…, R Lyn-Cook, JF Leckman, ML Schwartz… - Journal of …, 2000 - Soc Neuroscience
Little is known about regionally specific signals that control the number of neuronal progenitor
cells in vivo. We have previously shown that the germline mutation of the basic fibroblast …

Decreased number of parvalbumin and cholinergic interneurons in the striatum of individuals with Tourette syndrome

…, PSA Kalanithi, H Grantz, ML Schwartz… - Journal of …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Corticobasal ganglia neuronal ensembles bring automatic motor skills into voluntary control

Changes in cerebral cortex size are governed by fibroblast growth factor during embryogenesis

FM Vaccarino, ML Schwartz, R Raballo, J Nilsen… - Nature …, 1999 - nature.com
We show that fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and FGF receptors are transiently expressed
by cells of the pseudostratified ventricular epithelium (PVE) during early neurogenesis. A …
