Abstract: The dI1 commissural axons in the developing spinal cord, upon crossing the midline through the floor plate, make a sharp turn to grow rostrally. These post‐crossing axons initially just extend adjacent to the floor plate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-12269-8
Abstract: Netrin-1 (Ntn1) emanating from the ventral midline has been thought to act as a long-range diffusible chemoattractant for commissural axons (CAs). However, CAs still grow towards the midline in the absence of the floor plate… read more here.
