Surface Movements during the Growth of Single Explanted Neurons
Open accessAbstract
The processes of isolated rat sympathetic neurons growing in culture were marked with glass or carmine particles and observed with timelapse microphotography. Particles on the processes moved with the cell in relation to the dish and underwent continual small jerky movements. They did not, however, show any over-all distal motion and for long periods, during which the growth cone progressed more than 100 μ, the particles remained at about the same distance from the cell body. The most obvious explanation for this result is that new fiber surface, and perhaps the plasma membrane, is deposited in the region of the growing tip.

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.
