Tunneling-nanotube direction determination in neurons and astrocytes

A tunneling nanotube (TNT) is a newly discovered structure involved in cell–cell communication and is found in various types of cells. Here we identify S100A4 as an extracellular molecule and describe its role in attracting the growth direction of TNTs. Together with its putative receptor, receptor...
