Axonal plasticity in response to active forces generated through magnetic nano-pulling

Summary: Mechanical force is crucial in guiding axon outgrowth before and after synapse formation. This process is referred to as “stretch growth.” However, how neurons transduce mechanical input into signaling pathways remains poorly understood. Another open question is how stretch growth is couple...
