Pioneer axon tracts act as a scaffold for subsequent extension of follower neuron axons. Pioneer neurons have been well documented in the central and peripheral nervous systems of both vertebrates and invertebrates, but their molecular make-up remains poorly understood. 000041609 540__ $$fCC BY 000041609 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000041609 650__ $$aZebrafish$$028076 000041609 650__ $$aReceptors, Nerve Growth Factor$$030001 000041609 650__ $$aAxons$$015276 000041609 650__ $$aNeurons$$022858 000041609 650__ $$aNeurogenesis$$038327 000041609 6531_ $$atranscriptional profiling 000041609 6531_ $$atranscriptional identity 000041609 6531_ $$aretinoic acid signaling 000041609 6531_ $$apioneer neurons 000041609 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000041609 692__ $$aDepartment of Cell, Developmental and Cancer Biology$$041399 000041609 7001_ $$aWoodruff, Benjamin$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041609 7001_ $$aMiller, Lauren$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041609 7001_ $$aCalistri, Nicholas$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041609 7001_ $$aHeiser, Laura M.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041609 7001_ $$aNechiporuk, Alex$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041609 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2023 000041609 8564_ $$97d49118d-c9aa-42b0-aeda-0e8c5ebb34f2$$s204282$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/41609/files/ResearchWeek.2023.Woodruff.Benjamin.pdf 000041609 980__ $$aResearch Week 000041609 981__ $$aPublished$$b2023-08-18
