However, their expression and function during retinal and optic nerve regeneration remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the expression and possible functions of the SoxC genes after retinal and optic nerve injury in adult zebrafish. We found that among the five SoxC members, Soxllb was strongly induced in BrdU-positive cells in the inner nuclear layer (INL) after retinal injury, and morpholino-mediated Soxllb-knockdown significantly reduced the number of proliferating cells in the INL at 4 days post-injury. After optic nerve lesion, both Soxl la and Soxl lb were strongly expressed in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), and knockdown of both Soxl la and Soxllb inhibited RGC axon regrowth in retinal explants. Our study thus uncovered a novel expression pattern of SoxC family genes after retinal and optic nerve injury, and suggests that they have important functions during retinal and optic nerve regeneration.展开更多

We explicitly describe a finite set of basic braid I*-transformations and show that any two reduced I*-expressions for a given involution in W can be transformed into each other through a series of basic braid/,-transformations. Our main result extends the earlier work on the Weyl groups of classical types (i.e., An, Bn, and Dn).展开更多
