General description

The antigen recognized by this clone, CAT-301 is a proteoglycan that is developmentaly regulated, high molecular chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan found on the extracellular surface of mammalian neurons. It is expressed late in development and although no definitive role has been identified for CAT-301, it is believed to have a role in the stabilisation of synaptic structure.

The name derives from the name of the monoclonal antibody originally used to identified by its expression, which was detected immunocytochemicaly



Disruption of the normal patterns of neuronal activity during the critical early postnatal period by physical or biochemical means results in a large and irreversible reduction in levels of CAT-301. Similar intervention in mature animals has no effect



CAT-301 is related to aggrecan from articular cartilage. The CAT-301 antibody immunoreacts with aggrecan, and the chondroitinase treated aggrecan and CAT-301 both have apparent sizes of 550kDa. However CAT- 301 is not glycosylated by keratan sulphate, as aggrecan is.

We propose a partitioning of the primate intraparietal sulcus (IPS) using immunoarchitectural and connectivity criteria. We studied the immunoarchitecture of the IPS areas in the capuchin monkey using Cat-301 and SMI-32 immunohistochemistry. In addition, we investigated the IPS projections to

Although the parallel visual pathways are a fundamental basis of visual processing, our knowledge of their molecular properties is still limited. Here, we uncovered a parvocellular-specific molecule in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of higher mammals. We found that

Monocular deprivation (MD) during a critical period of postnatal development produces significant changes in the anatomy and physiology of the visual cortex, and the deprived eye becomes amblyopic. Extracellular matrix molecules have a major role in restricting plasticity such that

The abducens nucleus (nVI) contains several functional cell groups: motoneurons of the singly-innervated twitch muscle fibers (SIF) and those of the multiply-innervated muscle fibers (MIF) of the lateral rectus muscle (LR), internuclear neurons (INTs) projecting to the contralateral oculomotor nucleus

Previous research has suggested that the three physiologically defined relay cell-types in mammalian lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN)-called parvocellular (P), magnocellular (M), and koniocellular (K) cells in primates and X, Y, and W cells in other mammals-each express a unique combination
