In parallel studies, Ortin-Martinez et al (2021) and Kalargyrou et al (2021) report for the first time a direct transfer of cytoplasmic and membrane-bound material between photoreceptors through nanotube-like connections, providing further evidence toward the existence of nanotube-mediated material transfer in vivo within the central nervous system. %G English %L pasteur-03934850 %U https://pasteur.hal.science/pasteur-03934850 %~ PASTEUR %~ CNRS %~ FNCLCC %~ CURIE %~ PCC_UMR168 %~ INC-CNRS %~ PSL %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SORBONNE-UNIV %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ INSTITUT-CURIE-PSL %~ SU-TI %~ ANR %~ ALLIANCE-SU %~ FRM %~ MEMBRANE-TRAFFIC-PATHOGENESIS %~ UMR3691
