1 Jorgensen, ErikGenetic screens for synaptic function mutants in the nematode C. elegansThe synapse is the site of a remarkable conversion of electrical signals into chemical signals. This conversion takes place when a depolarizing impulse enters the axon terminal and opens voltage-sensitive calcium channels; calcium then flows into the cell and initiates the fusion of synaptic vesicle...Vesicle; Neurotransmission; Cell1996
2 Bastiani, MichaelGuidance of neuronal growth cones in the grasshopper embryo. II. Recognition of a specific axonal pathway by the aCC neuronIn the previous paper, we experimentally analyzed the selective affinity of the pCC growth cone for the MP1/dMP2 fascicle in the grasshopper embryo. Here we describe a similar experimental analysis demonstrating the selective affinity of the aCC growth cone for the U fascicle. These results support...Axon; Cell; Fascicle1986
3 Bastiani, MichaelPathfinding by neuronal growth cones in grasshopper embryos I. Divergent choices made by the growth cones of sibling neuronsWe are interested in how the growth cones of identified neurons navigate in the central nervous system of the grasshopper embryo. The behavior of identified growth cones was observed as a function of developmental time by (i) periodically removing embryos from synchronized clutches of eggs and (i...Neuropil; Axonal; Cell1983
