These findings, the first to link these molecular semaphores to this important nerve cell function, appear in the May issue of Nature Cell Biology, published in advance at the journal’s website on April 10th. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.newswise.com/articles/view/511077/?sc=dwhp " target="blank">www.newswise.com/articles/view/511077/?sc=dwhp </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
