Probing relevant molecules in modulating the neurite outgrowth of hippocampal neurons on substrates of different stiffness.
Hippocampal neurons play a critical role in learning and memory; however, the effects of environmental mechanical forces on neurite extension and associated underlying mechanisms are largely unexplored, possibly due to difficulties in maintaining central nervous system neurons. Neuron adhesion, neur...
