Molecules and mechanisms that regulate multipolar migration in the intermediate zone

Most neurons migrate with an elongated, bipolar morphology, extending a long leading process that explores the environment. However, when immature projection neurons enter the intermediate zone of the neocortex they become multipolar. Multipolar cells extend and retract cytoplasmic processes in diff...
