| Research Abstract |
We studied on the intracellular mechanisms of neurite elongation controlled by early-late endosome transition modulated by Solo, Rho GTPase and class C VPS/HOPS molecules. We found that Rac is a major downstream signal regulator for neurite elongation induced by Solo and that VPS39 plays an important role in the cellular signal transduction. Moreover, we established a novel in vivo bioassay for neurite elongation/nerve regeneration by ligation of dissected rat facial nerve with silicon tube.
