The proneural gene Math1 is known to be involved in numerous functions within the nervous system, including unconscious proprioception, audition, and arousal. Two recent papers by the Zoghbi group in this issue of Neuron and a recent issue of PNAS now identify a critical role for this gene in the development of brainstem regions critical for conscious proprioception, interoception, and respiration.
已知原神经基因Math1参与神经系统内的多种功能,包括无意识本体感觉、听觉和觉醒。佐格比研究小组在本期《神经元》杂志以及最近一期《美国国家科学院院刊》上发表的两篇论文,现已确定该基因在对有意识本体感觉、内感受和呼吸至关重要的脑干区域发育中起关键作用。
