NEURONAL MORPHOGENESIS AND STRUCTURAL PLASTICITY: Axon Initiation Axon Growth Axon Guidance Axon Branching Dendritic Growth, Guidance, and Branching Dendritic Spine Formation, Stability, and Rapid Motility Synapse Formation and Stability Axon and Dendrite Retraction
4 processes coordinated: protrusion anchorage forward movement tail retraction
Guiding neuronal growth with light ? Laser:1064nm 700mW source 50 mW after nosepiece
Theory 1 Optical forces can impact diffusive behavior.
Theory 2 Mechanical manipulation of a membrane.
Theory 3 Dynamic Excitations in Membranes Induced by Optical Tweezers Colloidal effects
PEARLING OF CYLINDRICAL VESICLES Laser-induced rounding
Tests for each theory Theory 1 :* in vitro actin polymeried under laser beam * Listeria movement as membrance moving model Theory 2: *using flow cell to apply shear force on membrance Theory 3: *using indirect phenomena ex: pearling, rounding, retrcation, or in water *direct observe by EM or light scattering
