The axon (tree roots) is the neuron’s output structure when a neuron wishes to communicate with another neuron, it transmits an action potential through the entire axon. Dendrites branch as they approach closer to their tips, just like tree branches do, and they even have spines, which are leaf-like features. A neuron’s dendrite (tree branch) gets input from neighboring cells. Dendrites, an axon, and a cell body or soma are the three primary elements of a neuron, compared to the branches, roots, and trunk of a tree, respectively. Think of a neuron-like tree for a good analogy.
They are essential and structural units of the nervous system. Neurons are electrically excitable cells that are specialized to receive and transfer information to various body sections. Let’s discuss neuron definition in a detailed manner. Interneurons are little nerve cells that carry information between distinct neurons in the body. On the other hand, the motor neurons send information from the brain to the muscles. Sensory neurons provide information to the brain from sensory receptor cells located throughout the body. Neurons occur in various forms and sizes, but they all help with information transmission. This can be accomplished physically as well as electrically. They deliver and receive messages to a variety of body parts. Neuronal cells are the building components of the nervous system. Available fields are: Gene name ( HGNC name or synonyms), Protein class, Chromosome, External identifier ( Ensembl gene, transcript or protein identifier, UniProt accession number, NCBI Entrez gene identifier), Subcellular location based on immunofluorescent staining in three different cell lines, Organ-, Tissue-, Cancer- and Cell line expression, Antibody validation results in four different assays ( IH=immunohistochemistry, IF=immunoflourescence, WB=Western blot, PA=Protein array), evidence scores and a filtration on Genes with antibodies only and Genes with knowledge-based annotated protein expression ( IH, IF).Invertebrates or neurons, also known as nerve cells, are the most basic and most extended cells in the human body.
Specific fields can be searched by using the "Fields"-function. The free text query word needs to be at least three characters long.
The free text search will scan for complete and partial matches to gene names, gene synonyms, gene descriptions, external ( UniProt, Ensembl, NCBI Entrez Gene) gene and protein identifiers, protein classes, Gene Ontology identifiers and descriptions, antibody identifiers and image annotations. The search function can be used for free text search (type anything in the search field), or for more complex queries using "Fields" (see examples).
