COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING WNT-3 PEPTIDE FOR MODULATING MEDIAL-LATERAL NEURONAL TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS

摘要

Methods and kits are provided for modulating the axonal growth of a neuron comprising contacting the neuron with a Wnt3 polypeptide or expressing an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a Wnt3 polypeptide. Also provided are compositions for modulating the medial-lateral axonal growth of a neuron comprising a Wnt3 polypeptide and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent and methods for administering such compositions to subjects.
