Commissural neurons ensure the coordination of motor and somatosensory information between halves of the central nervous system. In the caudal part of the CNS, commissural axons, first grow toward the ventral midline, the floor plate, to cross it and reach their final target. The cellular and molecular mechanisms controlling midline crossing have been extensively studied. Ram—n y Cajal, in his neurotropic theory, suggested that floor plate cells could release diffusible factors chemo-attracting commissural axons to the ventral midline. Netrin-1, a protein discovered more than 2 decades ago, is a secreted protein expressed both by floor plate cells and ventricular zone progenitors and with long-range chemoattractive activity in vitro.
