Neurite Outgrowth Induced by Adhesive Proteins

  • Conference paper
Glial-Neuronal Communication in Development and Regeneration

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIH,volume 2))

Abstract

Outgrowth of neurites during development and regeneration in central and peripheral nervous systems involves mechanisms based on soluble neurite-promoting molecules, like the nerve growth factor (1) and other diffusible substances (2–6). Adhesion of neurons to other cells or to the surrounding extracellular matrix is also thought to play an important role in the outgrowth of neurites (7). Thus, specialized regions of the neurons identified as growth cones adhere to surfaces of other cells or to other extracellular surfaces, and these adhesions are thought to guide axonal growth (7).
