The possible mechanisms through which Cdk5 regulates differentiation, exocytosis, gene expression and transcription, cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion, cell migration, tissue regeneration, senescence, apoptosis and hormone regulation in non-neuronal cells are discussed. A summary of the various non-neuronal cell types, cellular activities and genes or proteins affected by Cdk5 activity and a discussion of comparable events in neuronal cells are presented.
