Synonyms: | growth cone collapse, negative regulation of neurite biosynthesis, negative regulation of neurite development, negative regulation of neurite formation, negative regulation of neurite growth |
Definition: | Any process that decreases the rate, frequency or extent of neuron projection development. Neuron projection development is the process whose specific outcome is the progression of a neuron projection over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A neuron projection is any process extending from a neural cell, such as axons or dendrites (collectively called neurites). |
