Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) accumulates in nerve growth cones (NGC) during perinatal development and it is neuroprotective in ischemia. Because the phospholipases A 2 (PLA 2 ) are present in NGC and these enzymes function in both ischemia and longterm potentiation, the relationship between DHA and PL
The controlled extension of neurites is essential not only for nervous system development, but also for effective nerve regeneration after injury. This process is critically dependent on microtubule assembly since axons fail to elongate in the presence of drugs which disrupt normal assembly dynamics
## Abstract In previous studies, we have shown overexpression and ectopic subcellular distribution of γ‐tubulin and βIII‐tubulin in human glioblastomas and glioblastoma cell lines (Katsetos et al., 2006, J Neuropathol Exp Neurol 65:455–467; Katsetos et al., 2007, Neurochem Res 32:1387–1398). Here w
The growth of axons and dendrites during development and regeneration is regulated by cues in the environment. Many of these cues regulate the actin cytoskeleton of the protrusive structures (like filopodia) of the growth cone that are essential for detecting and responding to cues. Nerve growth fac
## Abstract The toxic effects of ouabain and various fluorescein analogs have been tested on nerve growth factor‐promoted (NGF‐promoted) outgrowth of neurites from embryonic chick sensory ganglia embedded in a matrix of native collagen. Ouabain inhibits outgrowth with an IC~50~ of approximately 5 μ
