Abstract

Axon paths in developing spinal cords Sensory neurons entering the spinal cord take different paths as inputs for pain and proprioception diverge. Working with chick and mouse embryos, Guy et al. found that glycerophospholipids produced by radial glial cells guide these neural fibers, or axons, in the developing spinal cord. A soluble glycerophospholipid released by the cells provided an inhibitory signal to the pain-sensitive axons, keeping them on their own unique pathway. Science , this issue p. 974
