  • Title: The axonal transport of beta III-tubulin is altered in both branches of sensory axons after injury of the rat sciatic nerve.
    Author: Hoffman PN, Luduena RF.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1996 Feb 05; 708(1-2):182-4. PubMed ID: 8720876.
    Abstract:
    We have analyzed the axonal transport of beta III-tubulin in the central (dorsal root) and peripheral (sciatic nerve) branches of sensory axons after injury of the sciatic nerve. Our finding that the relative amount of beta III-tubulin transported in slow component b (SCb) is increased in both axonal branches does not support the generally accepted hypothesis that the transport of cytoskeletal proteins is altered in the peripheral, but not the central branch after injury of the sciatic nerve.
