Publisher Summary The complex functional architecture of neurons includes many specializations in cytoskeletal and membranous components. Each of these specializations is dynamic, constantly changing and being renewed at a rate determined by the local signaling environment and cellular metabolism.

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 1976
The phenomenon of axonal transport of material has been well documented (Ochs, 1971; Lasek, 1970; and Grafstein, 1967). This report seeks to establish the role of diffusion—if any—in such a transport process. We report that diffusion cannot account for the observed build-up of material as reported in the literature.

Axonal Transport of Taurine [PDF]
, 1981 Taurine is present in high concentrations in mammalian brain and in especially high concentrations in developing brain, in which it is the free amino acid present in the greatest concentration (Sturman et al., 1978). Little is known about the functions of taurine, other than its role in bile acid conjugation, an observation made over a century ago ...

There are several aspects to the study of the life cycle of a receptor molecule. These include its identification, synthesis, transport, insertion into membranes, function, inactivation, turnover, and degradation. Because of the dramatic successes in the past ten to fifteen years in identifying receptors, many of the other aspects can be studied.

The continuous intraaxonal transport of axoplasmic materials is a major energy-requiring process within the normal nerve cell. Axonal transport provides axons and dendrites with the vast majority, if not all, of their constituent proteins necessary for the formulation of the cytoskeleton, for neurotransmission, and for membrane structure and function ...

Neurofilaments Transport in Axon
2014Most axonal proteins are synthesized in the nerve cell body and are then transported along the axon. One type of cargo structures is neurofilaments, neuron-specific cytoskeleton polymers that function as space-filling structure in axon. Each such cargo is attached to a motor protein that travels along microtubules.

Retrograde axonal transport of mercury
Experimental Neurology, 1987Female Wistar rats were injected in the tongue with a small volume of 203Hg and were killed 2 weeks later. The lower brain stem with the hypoglossal nuclei was removed and sectioned in a cryostat. Autoradiography of freeze-dried sections showed labeling of both hypoglossal nuclei.
