Health | Growth cones sense guidance signals in their environment and "steer" growing axons. (references) | |
The tip of a growing axon forms a specialized structure called a growth cone. These growth cones sense cues, integrate that information, and make choices that steer the axon in one direction or another. (references) | ||
When researchers blocked this growth inhibitor with an antibody called IN-1, which binds to and masks the factor from growth cones, severed axons began extending past the oligodendrocytes and reconnecting with their targets. (references) | ||
