Axonal transport: Driving synaptic function

Open access

Abstract

From trafficking to maintenance: Neurons are remarkably polarized in that proteins made in the cytosol often need to travel many tens or hundreds of cell body lengths along axons to their sites of action in the synapse. Axonal transport of these components is driven by molecular motors along axonal microtubules. Guedes-Dias and Holzbaur review the cell biology of axonal transport and highlight the roles this fundamental process plays in organismal health. Science , this issue p. eaaw9997

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • It cannot be excluded that the SSRI intervention could have an effect on specific binding in the white matter.

    “Further, given that the centrum semiovale had the second highest estimated effect size (Cohen’s d of 0.51) and that we saw an effect of intervention duration for the centrum semiovale, we cannot exclude that the SSRI intervention could have an effect on the specific binding in the white matter, e.g. due to increased axonal transport of newly synthesized synaptic vesicle precursors [56].”

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.
