Giant ankyrin-B mediates transduction of axon guidance and collateral branch pruning factor sema 3A
Variants in the high confident autism spectrum disorder (ASD) gene ANK2 target both ubiquitously expressed 220 kDa ankyrin-B and neurospecific 440 kDa ankyrin-B (AnkB440) isoforms.

Nystatin Regulates Axonal Extension and Regeneration by Modifying the Levels of Nitric Oxide
Nystatin is a pharmacological agent commonly used for the treatment of oral, mucosal and cutaneous fungal infections. Nystatin has also been extensively applied to study the cellular function of cholesterol-enriched structures because of its ability to ...

A new view of axon growth and guidance grounded in the stochastic dynamics of actin networks
The mechanism of axon growth and guidance is a core, unsolved problem in neuroscience and cell biology. For nearly three decades, our view of this process has largely been based on deterministic models of motility derived from studies of neurons cultured

Functional Complexity of the Axonal Growth Cone: A Proteomic Analysis
The growth cone, the tip of the emerging neurite, plays a crucial role in establishing the wiring of the developing nervous system. We performed an extensive proteomic analysis of axonal growth cones isolated from the brains of fetal Sprague-Dawley rats.
