Spectrins in axonal cytoskeletons: Dynamics revealed by extensions and fluctuations [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2014 The macroscopic properties, the properties of individual components, and how those components interact with each other are three important aspects of a composited structure. An understanding of the interplay between them is essential in the study of complex systems.

The transport and assembly of the axonal cytoskeleton. [PDF]
The Journal of cell biology, 1989 ERV~ cells display a number of unusual properties which are generally viewed as adaptations to their extreme length and regional specialization. The dense and highly organized neurofilament (NF) ~ and microtubule (MT) arrays which serve to support nerve axons provide one example; another is the phenomenon of axonal transport, by which macromolecules ...

Erratum: The nano-architecture of the axonal cytoskeleton [PDF]
Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2017 Nature Reviews Neuroscience 18, 713–726 (2017) In Box 1 of this article, the sentence “Actin filaments are approximately 8 nm in diameter, are composed of heterodimers of α-actin and β-actin (known as G-actin) and require ATP for polymerization” should have read “Actin filaments are approximately 8 nm in diameter, are composed of actin monomers (known ...

Production of IL-16 correlates with CD4+ Th1 inflammation and phosphorylation of axonal cytoskeleton in multiple sclerosis lesions [PDF]
Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2006 Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a central nervous system-specific autoimmune, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease. Infiltration of lesions by autoaggressive, myelin-specific CD4+Th1 cells correlates with clinical manifestations of disease ...

Molecular Dissection of DAAM Function during Axon Growth in Drosophila Embryonic Neurons
Cells, 2022 Axonal growth is mediated by coordinated changes of the actin and microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton. Ample evidence suggests that members of the formin protein family are involved in the coordination of these cytoskeletal rearrangements, but the molecular ...

Impaired function of HDAC6 slows down axonal growth and interferes with axon initial segment development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The development of morphological neuronal polarity starts by the formation and elongation of an axon. At the same time the axon initial segment (AIS) is generated and creates a diffusion barrier which differentiate axon and somatodendritic compartment ...

Unraveling axonal mechanisms of traumatic brain injury
Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2022 Axonal swellings (AS) are one of the neuropathological hallmark of axonal injury in several disorders from trauma to neurodegeneration. Current evidence proposes a role of perturbed Ca2+ homeostasis in AS formation, involving impaired axonal transport ...
