Finally out! 🥳We added a lot of rescue experiments. We now show that Arl13b needs to locate to commissural neurons primary cilium for proper rostral turning of axons. We also further characterized Shh retrograde transport to the soma of comm. neurons. journals.biologists.com/dev/article/do…

Delighted to share our latest preprint entitled « A cell-autonomous role for #primarycilia in long-range commissural #axonguidance ». We propose a mechanism involving the neuronal primary cilium during axon guidance at an intermediate target. tinyurl.com/2s4aykbb 🧵(1/7)

The tissue shown here is an ex vivo culture of intact spinal cord from a🐣embryo, allowing us to observe these processes in a controlled yet physiologically relevant setting.What looks like a simple crossing event emerges from complex and tightly regulated cellular processes.

During development, these neurons extend long projections that grow toward the midline, cross it, and then turn to grow along the length of the spinal cord. This coordinated behavior is essential for establishing connectivity between the two sides of the nervous system.

These are dI1 neurons, a well-studied class of spinal interneurons that have been used for more than 30 years to uncover fundamental mechanisms of axon guidance and neural circuit formation.

This is how actin shapes the neuronal growth cone 🔬 When a neuron grows, it doesn’t just extend blindly. It actively moves, explores its surroundings, and makes decisions along the way. #Neuroscience #ScienceCommunication #Microscopy #brain #Science #LifeSciences #neuron

This Is What Drives Axon Growth. Axon growth is powered by the actin cytoskeleton at the growth cone. Here, filamentous actin dynamics drive fast, directed axon extension in real time. #Fluorescencefriday #science #neuroscience

Thrilled to collaborate with @ZhixingChen2 Lab @PKU1898! We tested new PK Mem dyes—gentle, photostable tools to label the plasma membrane in live neurons, making it easier to track growth cone motility & axonal transport. #liveimaging #neuroscience tiny.cc/3qhp001

The punishment for science misconduct is …. nothing. All these men are still running labs / paid professors.
