Neuron, 2005 Proteoglycans are complex macromolecules with the potential for extraordinary diversity. Several recent studies have demonstrated important roles for heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs and CSPGs) in axon pathfinding and have linked HSPGs to specific signaling pathways.

Mechanical Behavior of Axonal Actin, Spectrin, and Their Periodic Structure: A Brief Review [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Actin and spectrin are important constituents of axonal cytoskeleton. Periodic actin and spectrin structures are found in dendrites, initial segment of axon, and main axon. Actin and spectrin periodicity has been hypothesized to be manipulating the axon stability and mechanical behavior.

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers perturb axonal growth and actin distribution
Bibechana, 2018 We investigated toxicological effects of two of the most common polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants, BDE-47 and BDE-209, in model PC12 cell line under two environmentally relevant exposure conditions: long term exposure to microgram ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a conductive nerve guidance conduit integrated with wireless electrical stimulation through alternating magnetic fields, which induces currents and creates a supportive microenvironment for nerve regeneration. In vivo studies show that this approach significantly enhanced myelin restoration, gastrocnemius muscle regeneration ...

Modelling axon growing using CTRW [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The main goal of this study is to propose a mathematical model describing paths of the axon growth cones and differences in the behavior of normal and mutant axons. We introduce a probabilistic model for axon growing, such that each family of axons is described as an ensemble of trajectories of a continuous time random walk (CTRW) model under different

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A flexible micro‐electrocorticography array with PEDOT:SS electrodes is shown to be compatible with ultra‐high magnetic field MRI up to 9.4 T. Multimodal brain monitoring is demonstrated by performing simultaneous blood oxygen level‐dependent functional MRI in parallel with electrophysiology.

Information processing in the axon [PDF]
Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2004 Axons link distant brain regions and are generally regarded as reliable transmission cables in which stable propagation occurs once an action potential has been generated. However, recent experimental and theoretical data indicate that the functional capabilities of axons are much more diverse than traditionally thought.
