Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Mesencephalic neurons were cultured from 2 to 5 days in mesencephalic (CM Gmes) or striatal (CM Gstr) astrocyte conditioned media or in the soluble (S100) and insoluble (P100) fractions prepared from these media by ultracentrifugation. CM Gmes as well as all soluble fractions induced dendritic and axonal elongation, whereas CM Gstr and the insoluble fractions promoted axonal growth only. The study of the shape of the neuronal cell bodies and the measurement of their adhesion to the substratum revealed that axons elongated under low adhesion conditions, but that dendrite growth was highly dependent upon adhesion and spreading of the neuronal soma. This different dependency of axonal and dendritic elongation upon spreading is explained by a model in which we consider the respective viscosities of axons and dendrites. From these observations and speculations we propose that axons and dendrites have different modes of elongation and that the primary effect of the astrocyte-derived factors capable of regulating neuronal polarity is to modify the adhesion of the neurons to their culture substratum.
