Axonal Transport

Axonal Transport is a fundamental biological process in which membranous organelles, proteins, and other cellular cargo are actively moved along microtubule tracks within the axon through molecular motor proteins, thereby enabling the directed transfer of materials between the neuronal cell body and synaptic terminals essential for neuronal function and maintenance.
