Genesis . 2014 Jul; 52(10):833-48. PMID: 25074687
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a large and complex family of zinc-dependent endoproteinases widely recognized for their roles in remodeling the extracellular matrix (ECM) during embryonic development, wound healing, and tissue...

Qi Y, Po M, Mac P, Kawano T, Jorgensen E, Zhen M, et al.
J Neurosci . 2013 Mar; 33(12):5319-25. PMID: 23516296
Excitatory acetylcholine motor neurons drive Caenorhabditis elegans locomotion. Coordinating the activation states of the backward-driving A and forward-driving B class motor neurons is critical for generating sinusoidal and directional locomotion....

Wen Q, Po M, Hulme E, Chen S, Liu X, Kwok S, et al.
Neuron . 2012 Nov; 76(4):750-61. PMID: 23177960
Locomotion requires coordinated motor activity throughout an animal's body. In both vertebrates and invertebrates, chains of coupled central pattern generators (CPGs) are commonly evoked to explain local rhythmic behaviors. In...

Po M, Calarco J, Zhen M
Neuron . 2012 Jan; 73(2):207-9. PMID: 22284174
The adult mammalian central nervous system exhibits restricted regenerative potential. Chen et al. (2011) and El Bejjani and Hammarlund (2012) used Caenorhabditis elegans to uncover intrinsic factors that inhibit regeneration...

Kawano T, Po M, Gao S, Leung G, Ryu W, Zhen M
Neuron . 2011 Nov; 72(4):572-86. PMID: 22099460
A neural network can sustain and switch between different activity patterns to execute multiple behaviors. By monitoring the decision making for directional locomotion through motor circuit calcium imaging in behaving...

Bouhours M, Po M, Gao S, Hung W, Li H, Georgiou J, et al.
Mol Brain . 2011 Apr; 4:16. PMID: 21489288
Gap junctions mediate the electrical coupling and intercellular communication between neighboring cells. Some gap junction proteins, namely connexins and pannexins in vertebrates, and innexins in invertebrates, may also function as...

Po M, Hwang C, Zhen M
Curr Opin Neurobiol . 2010 Jan; 20(1):100-7. PMID: 20079626
Axon guidance, outgrowth, and synapse formation are interrelated developmental events during the maturation of the nervous system. Establishing proper synaptic connectivity requires precise axon navigation and a coordinated switch between...

Hung W, Hwang C, Po M, Zhen M
Development . 2006 Dec; 134(2):237-49. PMID: 17151015
The establishment of axon-dendrite identity in developing neurites is essential for the development of a functional nervous system. The SAD serine-threonine kinases have been implicated in regulating neuronal polarization and...
