Mechanisms of Polarized Organelle Distribution in Neurons

Mechanisms of Polarized Organelle Distribution in Neurons

Neurons are highly polarized cells exhibiting axonal and somatodendritic domains with distinct complements of cytoplasmic organelles. Although some organelles are widely distributed throughout the neuronal cytoplasm, others are segregated to either the axonal or somatodendritic domains. Recent findi...
