Actin Waves Do Not Boost Neurite Outgrowth in the Early Stages of Neuron Maturation
During neurite Cloves development, Actin Waves (AWs) emerge at the neurite base and move up to its tip, causing a transient retraction of the Growth Cone (GC).Many studies have shown that AWs are linked to outbursts of neurite growth and, therefore, contribute to the fast elongation of the nascent axon.Using long term live cell-imaging, we show tha
