Non-muscle myosin II regulates neuronal actin dynamics by interacting with guanine nucleotide exchange factors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Non-muscle myosin II (NM II) regulates a wide range of cellular functions, including neuronal differentiation, which requires precise spatio-temporal activation of Rho GTPases.

An Emerging Role of PRRT2 in Regulating Growth Cone Morphology
Cells, 2021 Mutations in the PRRT2 gene are the main cause for a group of paroxysmal neurological diseases including paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia, episodic ataxia, benign familial infantile seizures, and hemiplegic migraine. In the mature central nervous system,

Increase in Growth Cone Size Correlates with Decrease in Neurite Growth Rate
Neural Plasticity, 2016 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.

Growth Factors as Axon Guidance Molecules: Lessons From in vitro Studies
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Growth cones at the tips of extending axons navigate through developing organisms by probing extracellular cues, which guide them through intermediate steps and onto final synaptic target sites.

Reproductive effort assessment for woody plants using Siberian spruce and Siberian fir [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 The correlation between the yield of Siberian spruce (Picea obovata Ledeb.) and Siberian fir (Abies sibirica Ledeb.) cones and radial wood increments was examined using long-term data (47 years) from direct observations.

The dynamics of growth cone morphology [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2015 Normal brain function depends on the development of appropriate patterns of neural connections. A critical role in guiding axons to their targets during neural development is played by neuronal growth cones. These have a complex and rapidly changing morphology; however, a quantitative understanding of this morphology, its dynamics and how these are ...

Microtubule looping in xyloside-treated growth cones.
, 2022 A) Images of hippocampal neurons treated with either DMSO or LCX. LCX-treated neurons have large growth cones with extensive microtubule looping (arrow). B) Dose response curve for xyloside treatment. Percentage of neurons with looped microtubules at the

Pathfinding by neuronal growth cones in grasshopper embryos. I. Divergent choices made by the growth cones of sibling neurons [PDF]
, 1983 We are interested in how the growth cones of identified neurons navigate in the central nervous system of the grasshopper embryo. The behavior of identified growth cones was observed as a function of developmental time by (i) periodically removing ...
