Subcellular profiling reveals distinct and developmentally regulated repertoire of growth cone mRNAs [PDF]
Cue-directed axon guidance depends partly on local translation in growth cones. Many mRNA transcripts are known to reside in developing axons, yet little is known about their subcellular distribution or, specifically, which transcripts are in growth ...

Increase in Growth Cone Size Correlates with Decrease in Neurite Growth Rate
Several important discoveries in growth cone cell biology were made possible by the use of growth cones derived from cultured Aplysia bag cell neurons, including the characterization of the organization and dynamics of the cytoskeleton.

Neuronal Growth Cone Size-Dependent and -Independent Parameters of Microtubule Polymerization
Migration and pathfinding of neuronal growth cones during neurite extension is critically dependent on dynamic microtubules. In this study we sought to determine, which aspects of microtubule polymerization relate to growth cone morphology and migratory ...

Isolation of Growth Cones from Mouse Brain
Growth cones are motile structures at the tips of growing neurites, which play an essential role in regulation of growth and navigation of growing axons and dendrites of neurons in the developing nervous system.

Frazzled promotes growth cone attachment at the source of a Netrin gradient in the Drosophila visual system. [PDF]
Axon guidance is proposed to act through a combination of long- and short-range attractive and repulsive cues. The ligand-receptor pair, Netrin (Net) and Frazzled (Fra) (DCC, Deleted in Colorectal Cancer, in vertebrates), is recognized as the ...

Mechanochemical regulation of growth cone motility
Neuronal growth cones are exquisite sensory-motor machines capable of transducing features contacted in their local extracellular environment into guided process extension during development.

Performance of Hop Cultivars Grown with Artificial Lighting under Subtropical Conditions
The objective of this study was to determine the duration of the main phenological stages, plant growth development, yield, and cone quality of hop cultivars grown under artificial light (17 h per day) during vegetative development (early season) in a ...

Non-canonical retinoid signaling in neural development, regeneration and synaptic function
Canonical retinoid signaling via nuclear receptors and gene regulation is critical for the initiation of developmental processes such as cellular differentiation, patterning and neurite outgrowth, but also mediates nerve regeneration and synaptic ...

Notes on factor price equality and biased technical change in a two-cone trade model [PDF]
We reconsider the effects of long-run economic growth on relative factor prices across cones of specialization. We model economic growth as exogenous technical change.
