Structural requirements for the stimulation of neurite outgrowth by two variants of laminin and their inhibition by antibodies
Laminin derived from the Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) tumor and a lamininlike molecule synthesized by RN22 Schwannoma cells both stimulate rapid neurite outgrowth, consistent with a common neurite-promoting site. However, antilaminin antisera can only inhibit the activity of the EHS laminin. The blocking antibodies in such sera are directed against the terminal heparin-binding domain of the lami...
متن کاملCritical time window of neuronal cholesterol synthesis during neurite outgrowth.
Cholesterol is an essential membrane component enriched in plasma membranes, growth cones, and synapses. The brain normally synthesizes all cholesterol locally, but the contribution of individual cell types to brain cholesterol metabolism is unknown. To investigate whether cortical projection neurons in vivo essentially require cholesterol biosynthesis and which cell types support neurons, we h...
متن کاملProteoglycans: Road Signs for Neurite Outgrowth
Proteoglycans in the central nervous system play integral roles as "traffic signals" for the direction of neurite outgrowth. This attribute of proteoglycans is a major factor in regeneration of the injured central nervous system. In this review, the structures of proteoglycans and the evidence suggesting their involvement in the response following spinal cord injury are presented. The review fu...
متن کاملNeurite Outgrowth: A Flick of the Wrist
A new study has shown that, near the tip of a growing axon, dephosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein Doublecortin is controlled by protein phosphatase 1 and its regulator spinophilin. This results in spatially regulated microtubule bundling within the axon and more efficient axon outgrowth.
متن کاملAutomated 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...
