Rapid 3D Enhanced Resolution Microscopy Reveals Diversity in Dendritic Spinule Dynamics, Regulation, and Function
2020, NeuronCitation Excerpt :Conversely, filopodia are long thin protrusions emanating from axonal growth cones, dendritic growth cones, or dendritic shafts in developing neurons (Hotulainen and Hoogenraad, 2010). Invagination into the presynaptic terminal has been used to define spinules (Petralia et al., 2018), but these structures can also partially wrap around presynaptic terminals (Pappas and Purpura, 1961). Because various protrusions have been reported throughout animal evolution in multiple regions of the central and peripheral nervous systems, spinules may be members of a family of submicroscopic cellular projections with a broad role in paracrine intercellular communication (Petralia et al., 2015).
Multivesicular bodies in neurons: Distribution, protein content, and trafficking functions
2011, Progress in NeurobiologyCitation Excerpt :MVBs have only rarely been documented in normal CNS axons under physiological conditions (Janetzko et al., 1989; Roizin et al., 1967; Vitalis et al., 2008). Some investigators concluded that MVBs may not exist there at all (Castel et al., 1992; Hirano and Llena, 1995; Pappas and Purpura, 1961). Based on the apparent lack of MVBs in CNS axons, Pappas and Purpura (1961) suggested that MVBs may aid in the ultrastructural distinction between dendritic and axonal processes.
