Thalamic afferents to the visual cortex in the cat studied by retrogradeaxonaltransportof horseradish peroxidase.
From theCambridge English Corpus
While still unmyelinated, the diameter of the axons tends to be uniform along their length, which provides a linear track foraxonaltransport.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Previous studies indicate thataxonaltransportof organelles across the nodal/paranodal region is regulated locally.
From theCambridge English Corpus
These findings strongly suggest that the paranodal junctions regulateaxonaltransportof mitochondria across the nodal/paranodal region.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Thalamic afferents to the limbic cortex in the cat studied with the method of retrogradeaxonaltransportof horseradish peroxidase.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The mechanism(s) involved might reflect abnormalities in the components of the paranodal region resulting in local alterations ofaxonaltransport, ion homeostasis and energy metabolism.
From theCambridge English Corpus
These aggregates may interfere with normal proteasome function, and also with other cellular processes, such as neurofilament function, leading to impairedaxonaltransportand further toxic aggregation.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In the mouse, infection of the footpad, eye, ear or flank leads to replication at the local epithelial site andaxonaltransportof virus to the relevant sensory ganglia.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Their axons are well myelinated but exhibit impairedaxonaltransportand progressive degeneration, which is difficult to attribute to the absence of a single myelin protein.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Afteraxonaltransportthe peptides are stored as neurophysin-peptide combinations in the posterior pituitary and then released into the blood stream, where they immediately dissociate from the neurophysin.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Oxidative stress might also link with other proposed disease mechanisms such as excitotoxicity andaxonaltransportdefects.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Semaphorins have also been shown to mediate other neuronal processes besides targeting such as: apoptosis, cell migration, axon pruning, synaptic transmission, andaxonaltransport.
