    John Lee
    Department of Biochemistry, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    J Cell Biol 170:661-73. 2005
    ..Accordingly, cultured OLs from CNP-deficient mice extend smaller outgrowths with less arborized processes. We propose that CNP is an important component of the cytoskeletal machinery that directs process outgrowth in OLs...

    Department of Biochemistry, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3G 1Y6
    Mol Cell Neurosci 31:446-62. 2006
