Slit-Robo signaling supports motor neuron avoidance of the spinal cord midline through DCC antagonism and other mechanisms by Kelsey R. Nickerson, Kelsey R. Nickerson, Ferass M. Sammoura, Ferass M. Sammoura, Yonghong Zhou, Yonghong Zhou, Alexander Jaworski, Alexander Jaworski

“…This includes motor neuron wiring, where Robos help prevent both motor neuron cell bodies and axons from aberrantly crossing the spinal cord midline. These functions had been ascribed to Robo signaling being required to counter DCC-mediated attraction to Netrin-1 at the midline, either by mediating repulsion from midline-derived Slits or by silencing DCC signaling. …”
