(A) The process of retrograde extension in the AMsh glia. During embryogenesis, AMsh cells (green) and amphid neurons (not shown) extend processes that anchor to the nose tip through DEX-1 and DYF-7. Posterior migration stretches out the cells to form the processes and dendrites observed. A, anterior; P, posterior. (B) AMsh cell body migration mediated by cleaved Robo and its glial receptor SYG-1/Neph. (C) Halting of further AMsh migration occurs at the terminal pharyngeal bulb, where the glia-expressed cell adhesion molecule PTP-3 interacts with the extracellular matrix protein NID-1.
