Axon GuidanceAbility of the growing axon to navigate its way through the complex landscape of the developing embryo to its correct target tissue and establish synaptic communication with it.

Pioneer axon navigation

• Growing axons are able to recognize various molecules on the surfaces of other
axons and cells, and to use these molecules as cues to
navigate the sometimes circuitous pathways to their
particular destinations.
• Also respond to diffusible molecules such as morphogens.
• They respond to same cues differently during different developmental stages, thus giving different outputs.
Hibbard, 1965

Chemoattraction at the CNS midline
![Page 9: Neurobiology I Axon Guidance 20130916. Why guidance is important?](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070413/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0cdb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Attraction to midline: due to activation of DCC by netrins.
• Crossing and moving from the midline:
1.Upregulation of Robo expression and repulsion by Slit
2.Loss of netrin responsiveness even if DCC is expressed.
