Nondiffusable substrate-bound molecules associated with the cell surface and extracellular matrix can promote or inhibit axon growth. Adhesion molecules associated with astrocytes and neurons play a role in promoting neurite growth in vitro. A large number of adhesion molecules have been identified,
The immunoglobulin superfamily molecule protein zero (P0) is important for myelin formation and may also play a role in adult axon regeneration, since it promotes neurite outgrowth in vitro. Moreover, it is expressed in the regenerating central nervous system (CNS) of fish, but not in the nonregener
