Mechanisms such as differential reliance on the secretory pathway contribute to the differentiation of axons and dendrites. A number of transcription factors confer neurons with distinctive dendrite ...

(Medical Xpress)—A fundamental difference between neurons in real brains and those in artificial neural networks is the way the neurons in each are connected. In artificial nets, the synapses between ...

Figure 1: DMA-1 is expressed in highly branched neurons. Figure 6: Expression of dma-1 in morphologically simple neurons can induce ectopic branching. Figure 7: dma-1 mutants display defects in ...

Dendritic structures that emerge during the growth of thin films are a major obstacle in large-area fabrication, a key step towards commercialization. However, current methods of studying dendrites ...
