pubmed:abstractText |
The active migration of neurons from their sites of origin to their final destinations requires the unidirectional translocation of the nuclei and somatic cytoplasm within the growing leading processes. To explore the cellular machinery underlying this translocation, we determined the polarity of microtubules situated within the leading and trailing processes of migrating cerebellar granule cells in situ. Our analysis reveals that the newly assembled positive ends of the microtubules in the leading process uniformly face the growing tip, while their disintegrating negative ends face the nucleus. In the trailing process, by contrast, microtubule arrays are of mixed polarity. We suggest that the dynamics of slow polymerization in combination with fast disintegration of oriented microtubules create "push" and "pull" forces that contribute to the piston-like saltatory displacement of the nucleus and cytoplasm within the membrane cylinder of the leading process of the migrating neuron.
