Neurite Growth

Molecular classification: Cellular Process

Overview

Neurite growth refers to the process by which neuronal extensions—either axons or dendrites—develop and extend from the cell body of a neuron. This process is fundamental for establishing connections between neurons, enabling the formation of functional neural circuits during development, regeneration, and synaptic plasticity. It involves a complex interplay of extracellular signals, intracellular signaling pathways, cytoskeletal dynamics (microtubules, actin filaments), membrane trafficking, and cell adhesion molecules.
