The Kinesin Adaptor Calsyntenin-1 Organizes Microtubule Polarity and Regulates Dynamics during Sensory Axon Arbor Development
Axon growth and branching, and development of neuronal polarity are critically dependent on proper organization and dynamics of the microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton. MTs must organize with correct polarity for delivery of diverse cargos to appropriate subcellular locations, yet the molecular mechanisms regulating MT polarity remain poorly understood. Moreover, how an actively branching axon reorga...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinases promote motor axon fasciculation in the Drosophila embryo.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a large conserved family of extracellular proteases, a number of which are expressed during neuronal development and upregulated in nervous system diseases. Primarily on the basis of studies using pharmaceutical inhibitors, MMPs have been proposed to degrade the extracellular matrix to allow growth cone advance during development and hence play largely permi...
متن کاملThe role of L1 in axon pathfinding and fasciculation.
The neural cell adhesion molecule L1 has been found to play important roles in axon growth and fasciculation. Our main objective was to determine the role of L1 during the development of connections between thalamus and cortex. We find that thalamocortical and corticothalamic axons in mice lacking L1 are hyperfasciculated, a subset of thalamocortical axons make pathfinding errors and thalamocor...
متن کاملAxon tension regulates fasciculation/defasciculation through the control of axon shaft zippering
While axon fasciculation plays a key role in the development of neural networks, very little is known about its dynamics and the underlying biophysical mechanisms. In a model system composed of neurons grown ex vivo from explants of embryonic mouse olfactory epithelia, we observed that axons dynamically interact with each other through their shafts, leading to zippering and unzippering behavior...
متن کاملSensory Axon Regeneration
Sound localization requires precise comparisons of binaural input in brainstem centers including the medial superior olive (MSO). MSO output is encoded as trains of action potentials, placing a premium on high temporal fidelity. This week, Scott et al. examined the membrane properties of MSO neurons that underlie this special role. The authors recorded from gerbil MSO neurons between postnatal ...
