ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Knocking down rat Celsr2 results in prominent simplification of dendritic arbors of cortical pyramidal neurons and Purkinje neurons
  • Celsr2 deficient mice fail to develop the ependymal cilia in the cerebral ventricles leading to defective cerebrospinal fluid dynamics and hydrocephalus
  • Celsr2/Celsr3 double mutant mice display markedly impairment of ependyma and ciliogenesis leading to lethal hydrocephalus
