French

Domaine(s)
  • Système nerveux
  • Cytologie
CONT

La plupart des molécules protéiques et des organites intracellulaires, nécessaires à l'entretien de l'axone et de ses terminaisons, sont transportés le long de l'axone. Ce processus, appelé transport axonal, est obligatoire, car les axones ne renferment ni ribosomes ni REG [reticulum endoplasmique granuleux].
