Their research could lead to new treatments for brain injury and disease. The work focuses on cellular outgrowths called neurites which are the precursors to axons and dendrites. Understanding how neurites form could eventually lead to therapies involving stimulation of neurite growth said Gertler. The team reported aspects of their work in the Nov. issue of Neuron and the Nov. online edition of Nature Cell Biology. The interconnection of these axons and dendrites is essential to create a functional neural circuit. Without the Ena VASP proteins neurites cannot form and no connections are made between neurons. recipient and graduate student Douglas Rubinson.
