Manipulation of Axonal Outgrowth via Exogenous Low Forces

Manipulation of Axonal Outgrowth via Exogenous Low Forces

Neurons are mechanosensitive cells. The role of mechanical force in the process of neurite initiation, elongation and sprouting; nerve fasciculation; and neuron maturation continues to attract considerable interest among scientists. Force is an endogenous signal that stimulates all these processes i...
