Growth Cone Collapse through Coincident Loss of Actin Bundles and Leading Edge Actin without Actin Depolymerization
Repulsive guidance cues can either collapse the whole growth cone to arrest neurite outgrowth or cause asymmetric collapse leading to growth cone turning. How signals from repulsive cues are translated by growth cones into this morphological change through rearranging the cytoskeleton is unclear. We examined three factors that are able to induce the collapse of extending Helisoma growth cones i...
متن کاملCa2+ induces macropinocytosis via F-actin depolymerization during growth cone collapse.
Growth cone collapse occurs in repulsive axon guidance and is accompanied by a reduction in the surface area of the plasma membrane of growth cones. However, the mechanism of this reduction is unclear. Here, we show that during growth cone collapse, caffeine-induced Ca(2+) release from ryanodine-sensitive Ca(2+) stores triggers the formation of large vacuoles in growth cones by macropinocytosis...
متن کاملCaffeine relaxes smooth muscle through actin depolymerization.
Caffeine is sometimes used in cell physiological studies to release internally stored Ca(2+). We obtained evidence that caffeine may also act through a different mechanism that has not been previously described and sought to examine this in greater detail. We ruled out a role for phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibition, since the effect was 1) not reversed by inhibiting PKA or adenylate cyclase; 2) ...
متن کاملFocal loss of actin bundles causes microtubule redistribution and growth cone turning
It is commonly believed that growth cone turning during pathfinding is initiated by reorganization of actin filaments in response to guidance cues, which then affects microtubule structure to complete the turning process. However, a major unanswered question is how changes in actin cytoskeleton are induced by guidance cues and how these changes are then translated into microtubule rearrangement...
متن کاملNeuron Migration: Anillin Protects Leading Edge Actin
Establishment of a neuronal system requires proper regulation of the F-actin-rich leading edges of migrating neurons and neurite growth cones. A new study shows that RhoG signals through the multi-domain protein anillin to stabilize F-actin in these structures.
