Neural Development: Axon Regeneration Derailed by Dendrites
Maturing neurons gradually lose the ability to regenerate axons. In the retina, signals from neighboring cells have been found to induce a perinatal switch from extension of axons to extension of dendrites, a change that may contribute to regeneration failure.
متن کاملDendrites actively restrain axon outgrowth and regeneration.
The development of approaches to regenerate neuronal connections that are lost after nervous system injury or during disease has proven enormously challenging. In the mammalian CNS the problem appears to be (at least) twofold. First, local extrinsic cues potently suppress axon outgrowth. However, efforts to blunt growth inhibitory effects of these molecules have not resulted in widespread regro...
متن کاملThe Inside Track: Privileged Neural Communication through Axon-Carrying Dendrites
Whether morphology tailors functional properties of pyramidal neurons is not completely understood. In this issue of Neuron, Thome et al. (2014) show that, in hippocampal pyramidal neurons, axons frequently originate from basal dendrites rather than the soma, constituting a "privileged" channel for synaptic inputs located in these axon-carrying dendrites.
متن کاملEpigenetic Regulation of Axon Regeneration after Neural Injury
When peripheral axons are damaged, neuronal injury signaling pathways induce transcriptional changes that support axon regeneration and consequent functional recovery. The recent development of bioinformatics techniques has allowed for the identification of many of the regeneration-associated genes that are regulated by neural injury, yet it remains unclear how global changes in transcriptome a...
متن کاملPTEN inhibition and axon regeneration and neural repair
The intrinsic growth ability of all the neurons declines during development although some may grow better than others. Numerous intracellular signaling proteins and transcription factors have been shown to regulate the intrinsic growth capacity in mature neurons. Among them, PI3 kinase/Akt pathway is important for controlling axon elongation. As a negative regulator of this pathway, the tumor s...
