Neuronal extracellular vesicles regulate axon development in primary cortical neurons via local miR-99a targeting of HS3ST2

Raquel Mesquita-Ribeiro, Alex Rathbone, Paula Jackson, Sophie McCann, Hannah K. Jackson, Cristiano Lucci, Victoria H. James, Clare Coveney, David J. Boocock, Federico Dajas‐Bailador

This study shows neuronal extracellular vesicles deliver miR-99a to axons, targeting HS3ST2 to regulate axon growth in mouse cortical neurons.
