Understanding axon guidance: are we nearly there yet?

ET Stoeckli - Development, 2018 - journals.biologists.com
During nervous system development, neurons extend axons to reach their targets and form
functional circuits. The faulty assembly or disintegration of such circuits results in disorders …

New insights into the molecular mechanisms of axon guidance receptor regulation and signaling

Y Zang, K Chaudhari, GJ Bashaw - Current topics in developmental …, 2021 - Elsevier
