NWG 23 Poster: Martin Both über Axone an Dendriten

Published: 27.04.2023

Das klassische Neuron sieht doch so aus: Die Dendriten, also die Eingänge am einen Ende, die Ausgangsleitung, das Axon, am anderen. Doch Dr. Martin Both zeigt uns, dass bei der Maus ein Axon auch direkt am Dendriten sitzen kann. Und er erklärt auch, warum. Aus der Postersession der NWG-Tagung 2023 in Göttingen.

Neuron

A neuron is a specialized cell in the nervous system that is responsible for processing and transmitting information. It receives signals via its dendrites and transmits them via its Axon. Transmission occurs electrically within the neuron and, between neurons, usually chemically via synapses.

Axon

axon

The axon is the extension of the nerve cell that is responsible for conducting nerve impulses to the next cell. An axon can branch out many times, reaching a large number of downstream nerve cells. It can be more than a meter long. The axon ends in one or more synapses.
