Automated screening of neurite outgrowth.

Outgrowth of neurites in culture is used for assessing neurotrophic activity. Neurite measurements have been performed very slowly using manual methods or more efficiently with interactive image analysis systems. In contrast, medium-throughput and noninteractive image analysis of neurite screens has not been well described. The authors report the performance of an automated image acquisition an...

Initial Neurite Outgrowth in Drosophila Neurons Is Driven by Kinesin-Powered Microtubule Sliding

Remarkably, forces within a neuron can extend its axon to a target that could be meters away. The two main cytoskeleton components in neurons are microtubules, which are mostly bundled along the axon shaft, and actin filaments, which are highly enriched in a structure at the axon distal tip, the growth cone. Neurite extension has been thought to be driven by a combination of two forces: pushing...

Neuronal PAS domain protein 4 ( Npas 4 ) regulates neurite outgrowth and phosphorylation of synapsin I

Background: Npas4 is involved in memory formation, but its roles in neuronal function remain to be fully elucidated. Results: Npas4 increased Cdk5-dependent phosphorylation of synapsin I that was associated with neurite elongation. Conclusion: Npas4 induced Cdk5-dependent phosphorylation of synapsin I to facilitate neurite outgrowth. Significance: Npas4 plays an important role in the structural...

Cables Links Cdk5 and c-Abl and Facilitates Cdk5 Tyrosine Phosphorylation, Kinase Upregulation, and Neurite Outgrowth

Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a small serine/threonine kinase that plays a pivotal role during development of the CNS. Cables, a novel protein, interacts with Cdk5 in brain lysates. Cables also binds to and is a substrate of the c-Abl tyrosine kinase. Active c-Abl kinase leads to Cdk5 tyrosine phosphorylation, and this phosphorylation is enhanced by Cables. Phosphorylation of Cdk5 by c-Ab...
