We have previously shown that adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) undergoes anterograde axonal transport in rat and non-human primate brain. We screened other AAV serotypes for axonal transport and ...

We describe a strategy for analyzing axonal transport of cytosolic proteins (CPs) using photoactivatable GFP—PAGFP—with modifications of standard imaging components that can be retroactively fitted to ...

You can’t keep a good mitochondrion down. Or maybe you can. In today’s Cell, researchers led by Zu-Hang Sheng at the National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke report that the protein ...

The mutant protein that causes Huntington disease blocks axonal traffic by putting the molecular equivalent of the wheel-locking “boot” on motor proteins, according to a paper published online June 14 ...

(Medical Xpress)—Neurons have developed elaborate mechanisms for transporting critical components, like transmitter-laden vesicles, down their axons to the synaptic terminations. An axon in a blue ...
