Herpes simplex virus type 1 modifies the protein composition of extracellular vesicles to promote neurite outgrowth and neuroinfection

open access: yesmBio
The highly prevalent herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) causes a range of diseases, including cold sores, blinding keratitis, and life-threatening encephalitis.

Mapping dynamic branch displacements: A versatile method to quantify spatiotemporal neurite dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2011
Quantification of the movement of axons and dendrites is essential to study circuit formation. Several methods have been developed to quantify the movement of neurites in simplified systems, however these quantification methods are specialized for a ...

A conserved morphogenetic mechanism for epidermal ensheathment of nociceptive sensory neurites

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Interactions between epithelial cells and neurons influence a range of sensory modalities including taste, touch, and smell. Vertebrate and invertebrate epidermal cells ensheath peripheral arbors of somatosensory neurons, including nociceptors, yet the ...

Local processing of visual information in neurites of VGluT3-expressing amacrine cells

open access: yes, 2017
Synaptic inputs to neurons are distributed across extensive neurite arborizations. To what extent arbors process inputs locally or integrate them globally is, for most neurons, unknown. This question is particularly relevant for amacrine cells, a diverse

The Schwann Cell

open access: yesActa Biológica Colombiana, 2004
The neurones are the cells of the nervous system and are surrounded and protected by glials cells. In the peripheral nervous system the Schwann cells (SC) are the glia of the nerves.

Nanotopographic control of actin waves and growth cone navigation in developing neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
The development of axons and dendrites (neurites) in a neural circuit relies on the dynamic interplay of cytoskeletal components, especially actin, and the integration of diverse environmental cues.

Effects of sphingosine, staurosporine, and phorbol ester on neurites of rat sympathetic neurons growing in compartmented cultures

open access: yes, 1991
Local application of sphingosine (1–10 microM), an inhibitor of protein kinase C, to NGF-supplied, distal neurites of rat sympathetic neurons in compartmented cultures caused their retraction and/or degeneration within 24 hr. This effect was specific for

Assembly and turnover of neurofilaments in growing axonal neurites

open access: yes, 2017
Neurofilaments (NFs) are thought to provide stability to the axon. We examined NF dynamics within axonal neurites of NB2a/d1 neuroblastoma by transient transfection with green fluorescent protein-tagged NF-heavy (GFP-H) under the control of a ...

661W and RGC-5 cells differentiated with staurosporine have similar numbers of induced neurites.

open access: yes, 2015
Cells were incubated in the indicated concentrations of staurosporine for 24 hr, fixed, photographed, and the number of neurites longer than twice the cell soma counted. (A) Microphotographs of sample fields of treated cells.
