TL;DR: Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies raised against a partially purified preparation of cranin suggest that the antigens are important in neural development by mediating at least some of the responses of neural cells to laminin--for example, by acting as a laminIn receptor guiding axonal outgrowth and neuronal migration, or by involvement in the transport and binding of lamination to the surface of neurons and reactive glial cells that synthesize lamination.

TL;DR: It is suggested that MAb 4 and 3070 antigens are important in neural development by mediating at least some of the responses of neural cells to laminin--for example, by acting as a laminIn receptor guiding axonal outgrowth and neuronal migration, or by involvement in the transport and binding of laminationin to the surface of neurons and reactive glial cells.

TL;DR: The effects of cycloheximide were re‐examine using time lapse analyses of NG108‐15 cells grown on laminin, together with morphometric analyses of cultures fixed at 1.5 or 3 hr after plating to resolve conflicting interpretations.

TL;DR: The expression of 3070 and MAb 4 antigens during regeneration of the goldfish optic nerve is examined to suggest several possible roles that they could play to aid nerve regeneration.
