Savage J, Ramirez J, Risher W, Wang Y, Irala D, Eroglu C
Cell Rep Methods . 2024 Sep; 4(9):100861. PMID: 39255792
The formation of precise numbers of neuronal connections, known as synapses, is crucial for brain function. Therefore, synaptogenesis mechanisms have been one of the main focuses of neuroscience. Immunohistochemistry is...

Tan C, Bindu D, Hardin E, Sakers K, Baumert R, Ramirez J, et al.
J Cell Biol . 2023 Sep; 222(11). PMID: 37707499
Astrocytes control the formation of specific synaptic circuits via cell adhesion and secreted molecules. Astrocyte synaptogenic functions are dependent on the establishment of their complex morphology. However, it is unknown...

Chen G, Xu J, Luo H, Luo X, Singh S, Ramirez J, et al.
JCI Insight . 2022 Oct; 7(23). PMID: 36256481
High endothelial venule protein/SPARC-like 1 (hevin/Sparcl1) is an astrocyte-secreted protein that regulates synapse formation in the brain. Here we show that astrocytic hevin signaling plays a critical role in maintaining...

Ramirez J, Bindu D, Eroglu C
Structure . 2021 Jul; 29(7):635-637. PMID: 34214438
Astrocyte-secreted Hevin induces synapse formation by bridging the trans-synaptic organizers, neuroligins and neurexins. In this issue of Structure, Fan et al. (2021) elucidate the structural basis of Hevin's interaction with...

Ramirez J, Chiquete E, Ramirez Jr J, Gomez-Limon E, Ramirez J
Arch Med Res . 2010 Nov; 41(6):478-82. PMID: 21044753
An expandable vertebral body prosthesis with dual cage-and-plate function in a single device (JR prosthesis) was designed to test the hypothesis that this modular system can provide the biomechanical requirements...
