## Abstract The growth cone of a developing neuron can be guided using a focused infraβred (IR) laser beam [1]. In previous setups this process has required a significant amount of user intervention to adjust continuously the laser beam to guide the growing neuron. Previously, a system using an aco
Growth cones are highly motile structures at the end of neuronal processes, capable of receiving multiple types of guidance cues and transducing them into directed axonal growth. Thus, to guide the axon toward the appropriate target cell, the growth cone carries out different functions: it acts as a
Antibodies against horseradish peroxidase (HRP) recognize a neural-tissue-specific carbohydrate moiety that is expressed on a complex set of developmentally regulated antigens in grasshopper, Drosophila and other insects. The functional role of the neural-specific carbohydrate has been investigated
