Abstract:
Recent achievement of molecular biology and neurophysiology resulting in remarkable progress in the understanding of processes of neurodifferentiation, playing the relevant role both in an ontogenesis and working of adult brain. New representations have been formed about a role of cytoskeletal proteins in mechanisms of neurites growth. In the review we discussed recent data regarding mechanisms of neuronal differentiation regulation. The special interest is given to a problem of influence of electrical fields on neuronal growth and differentiation. The mechanisms of signal transduction from a cell surface to nuclear are in detail analyzed. The classification of the physical and chemical factors of growth neurites regulation is given.

Enzyme-linked Receptors
Neurotrophin (NT) receptors are a family of RTKs, including trkA, trkB, and trkC (tropomyosin-related kinase) receptors. TrkA is specific for nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-6, and neurotrophin-7. TrkB binds...
