Abstract excerpt
Rapid neurite remodeling is fundamental to nervous system development and plasticity and is regulated by Rho family GTPases that signal f-actin reorganization in response to various receptor ligands. Neuronal N1E-115 cells show dramatic neurite retraction and cell rounding in response to serum factors such as lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), sphingosine-1 phosphate (S1P), and thrombin, due to activation of the...
