Figure 3 Induction of neuritin and its pathophysiological functions. Representative neuronal events that increase the expression of neuritin. Seizures, neurotrophins, and neuronal damage induce the expression of neuritin (left). The physiological roles of neuritin. Neuritin-induced changes might promote axonal regeneration after nerve injury, whereas the same morphological changes could exacerbate temporal lobe epilepsy (right). NGF: Nerve growth factor; BDNF: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor; NT-3: Neurotrophin-3.
