Neurite outgrowth is driven by actin polymerization even in the presence of actin polymerization inhibitors

Contrary to the classic concept that membrane protrusion in motile cells is driven by actin polymerization, microtubules are believed to drive outgrowth of neuronal processes in the presence of actin polymerization inhibitors. Even in this situation, membrane protrusion is driven by actin polymeriza...
