A multi-protein receptor-ligand complex underlies combinatorial dendrite guidance choices in C. elegans. [PDF]
, 2016 Ligand receptor interactions instruct axon guidance during development. How dendrites are guided to specific targets is less understood. The C. elegans PVD sensory neuron innervates muscle-skin interface with its elaborate dendritic branches.

Mathematical guidance for axons
Trends in Neurosciences, 1998 Axon guidance by gradients plays an important role in wiring up the developing nervous system. Growth cones seem to sense a concentration difference across their spatial extent, and convert this into a signal to move up or down a gradient. In this article, a simple mathematical framework is developed to understand when and where gradient detection can ...

A requirement for filopodia extension toward Slit during Robo-mediated axon repulsion [PDF]
, 2016 Axons navigate long distances through complex 3D environments to interconnect the nervous system during development. Although the precise spatiotemporal effects of most axon guidance cues remain poorly characterized, a prevailing model posits that ...

Axon Guidance: FLRTing Promotes Attraction [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 A recent study demonstrates a new mechanism by which crosstalk between multiple guidance cues is integrated during axon pathfinding. FLRT3 is a novel co-receptor for Robo1 that acts as a context-dependent modulator of Netrin-1 attraction in thalamocortical axons.
