Figure 6: Neurite Shafts Remain in Microfeatures at Similar Rates when Navigating Turns Regardless of Feature Amplitude.
A. Representative image of DRGN neurite unable to hold position around a turn through a 4 μm amplitude, 60° angle microfeature. B. Representative image of DRGN neurite holding position around 2 turns through an 8 μm amplitude, 60° angle microfeature. Red circles indicate neurite shafts not holding the turn while blue arrows show neurites that do hold the turn. C. Percent of neurites that successfully navigate the angle turn challenge and with shafts holding that position. One-way ANOVA shows no difference in treatment groups (p = 0.24). n = 49, 45, and 39. Error bars represent +/− SEM. Scale bar = 50 μm
