Neurofilaments Are Transported Rapidly But Intermittently in Axons: Implications for Slow Axonal Transport

Slow axonal transport conveys cytoskeletal proteins from cell body to axon tip. This transport provides the axon with the architectural elements that are required to generate and maintain its elongate shape and also generates forces within the axon that are necessary for axon growth and navigation....
