Japan analyses and explains the mystry of asymmetric growth of nerve cell
Www.xinhuanet.com Tokyo 8 Cable of the 9th of moon (reporter Lan JianZhong) Japan Nara large institute's university of most advanced science and technology published the communique and claimed a few days ago, the researchers of this organization clarify in animal's experiment the nerve cell presents the detailed mechanism of the asymmetrical shape in the course of growing, this discovery will contribute to developing and resuming damaging neural new therapeutic method. Actually the nerve cell took the form of ball, but in the course of growing, will stretch out about 3 to 6 of projections, a projection will lengthen, dashes for ward as the axle. It is to connect other nerve cells that the axle dashes for ward main function, thus transmit information among the nerve cell. Through training the nerve cell of body of sea horse in mouse's brain, researchers find, " S H O O T I N " that the exchanges move among noumenonn and projection of nerve cell of sea horse's body Protein has played an important role in destroying the symmetry of the nerve cell. In addition, if a protruding " S H O O T I N " There is more quantity of protein than other projections, then this projection will be extended, grow into the axle to dash for ward finally. The communique says, researchers can study and utilize " S H O O T I N " in the future Protein, the nerve damaging patient of damaging to the spinal etc. treats, the nerve cell axle which lengthens them is dashed for ward, thus connect nerve damaged or cut off accurately again. Relevant research results have already been issued on new British " member systematic biology " magazine network edition.
