Subcellular second messenger networks drive distinct repellent-induced axon behaviors

Open access

Published version of a preprint

Abstract

Second messengers, including cAMP, cGMP and Ca 2+ are often placed in an integrating position to combine the extracellular cues that orient growing axons in the developing brain. This view suggests that axon repellents share the same set of cellular messenger signals and that axon attractants evoke opposite cAMP, cGMP and Ca 2+ changes. Investigating the confinement of these second messengers in cellular nanodomains, we instead demonstrate that two repellent cues, ephrin-A5 and Slit1, induce spatially segregated signals. These guidance molecules activate subcellular-specific second messenger crosstalk, each signaling network controlling distinct axonal morphology changes in vitro and pathfinding decisions in vivo.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
