In the present study, we have highlighted some critical points regarding the centrosome positioning in neocortical pyramidal neurons during the migration and axon/dendrite formation in situ. Major points are : 1) centrosome in migrating multipolar neurons moves toward the most dominantly growing process ; 2 leading centrosome is occasionally overtaken by rapidly translocating nucleus during a locomotion cycle ; 3) centrosome proximity appears not to be essential to the backward formation of an axon-like process by locomoting neurons.
