TNTs could be distinct from the protrusions known so far and could be responsible for establishing another type of connection between cells.
Strikingly, soluble cytoplasmic molecules could not pass freely along the TNTs (with actin tagged with green fluorescent protein being the only exception), whereas membrane-bound proteins were transferred along TNTs and detected in the receiving cells, further supporting the likelihood of membrane continuity between connected cells.
Rustom and colleagues then went on to test whether TNTs could be used to transmit signals between cells.
It will be interesting to test whether TNTs also exist in living tissues and, if so, what molecules they transport.
The researchers also confirmed the existence of TNTs in a human cell line (human embryonic kidney cells) and rat primary cells (normal rat kidney cells), suggesting that TNTs are not a peculiarity of PC12 cells.
