Local F-actin Network Links Synapse Formation and Axon Branching
Axonal branching and synapse formation are tightly linked developmental events during the establishment of synaptic circuits. Newly formed synapses promote branch initiation and stability. However, little is known about molecular mechanisms that link these two processes. Here, we show that local assembly of an F-actin cytoskeleton at nascent presynaptic sites initiates both synapse formation an...
متن کاملAxon branching requires interactions between dynamic microtubules and actin filaments.
Cortical neurons innervate many of their targets by collateral axon branching, which requires local reorganization of the cytoskeleton. We coinjected cortical neurons with fluorescently labeled tubulin and phalloidin and used fluorescence time-lapse imaging to analyze interactions between microtubules and actin filaments (F-actin) in cortical growth cones and axons undergoing branching. In grow...
متن کاملThe Role of Urban-Rural Links in the Formation of the Local Network in the Border Areas (Gomishan; Golestan Province)
Background and Amis: Urban-rural links play an important role in the local economy and the livelihoods of the inhabitants of rural settlements so it is imperative to study more closely these links, their performances, their spatial-regional planning, and the "local network" approach in the scale of the district and the rural system. Like an efficient approach, the local network can cause func...
متن کاملCytoskeletal actin dynamics shape a ramifying actin network underpinning immunological synapse formation
T cell activation and especially trafficking of T cell receptor microclusters during immunological synapse formation are widely thought to rely on cytoskeletal remodeling. However, important details on the involvement of actin in the latter transport processes are missing. Using a suite of advanced optical microscopes to analyze resting and activated T cells, we show that, following contact for...
متن کاملAxon Development and Synapse Formation in Olfactory Sensory Neurons
Axonal development and synapse formation in olfactory sensory neurons By Florencia Marcucci The olfactory epithelium (OE) possesses the rare capacity among neuronal tissues to regenerate throughout life. As a result, progenitor cells continuously proliferate and differentiate into olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) that project their axons to the olfactory bulb (OB) where they establish connectio...
