摘要

Neuronal migration is an essential step of brain development and is controlled by a variety of cellular proteins and extracellular matrix molecules. Reelin, an extracellular matrix protein, is required for neuronal migration. Over the past 10 years, the Reelin signaling cascade has been studied intensively. However, the role of Reelin in neuronal migration has remained unclear. Different Reelin fragments and different Reelin receptors suggest multiple functions of Reelin. In this review, the authors focus on Reelin effects on the actin cytoskeleton of migrating neurons.
