X Abstract

The neuronal secretory pathway represents the intracellular route for proteins involved in synaptic transmission and plasticity, as well as lipids required for outgrowth and remodelling of dendrites and axons. Although neurons use the same secretory compartments as other eukaryotic cells, the enormous distances involved, as well as the unique morphology of the neuron and its signalling requirements, challenge canonical models of secretory pathway organization. Here, we review evidence for a distributed secretory pathway in neurons, suggest mechanisms that may regulate secretory compartment distribution, and discuss the implications of a distributed secretory pathway for neuronal morphogenesis and neural-circuit plasticity.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
