Single vesicle imaging indicates distinct modes of rapid membrane retrieval during nerve growth
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>During nerve growth, cytoplasmic vesicles add new membrane preferentially to the growth cone located at the distal tip of extending axons. Growth cone membrane is also retrieved locally, and asymmetric retrieval facilitates membrane...
