Retrograde Axoplasmic Transport.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynein

Cytoplasmic dynein probably helps to position the Golgi complex and other organelles in the cell.It also helps transport cargo needed for cell function such as vesicles made by the endoplasmic reticulum, endosomes, and lysosomes . Dynein is involved in the movement of chromosomes and positioning the mitotic spindles for cell division.Dynein carries organelles, vesicles and possibly microtubule fragments along the axons of neurons toward the cell body in a process called retrograde axoplasmic transport.
