TL;DR
The movement of substances from the nerve cell body to the nerve fibre ending was first hypothesized by Scott and many workers recently investigated the phenomenon using radioactive tracers and have observed that the labelled material is incorporated into the cell body and transported along the axon.
Abstract
THE movement of substances from the nerve cell body to the nerve fibre ending was first hypothesized by Scott1. Many workers2–5 have recently investigated the phenomenon using radioactive tracers and have observed that the labelled material is incorporated into the cell body and transported along the axon.

249 Citations1964Liliana Lubińska
The description of the pattern of axoplasmic streaming proposed in the chapter is based on various experimental results, such as in the isolated perikarya of neurons incessant movements of cytoplasm involving shifts of membranes and granules have been observed and the migration of radioactive tracers and the longitudinal spread of some physiological and morphological disturbances along the axons have be observed.

The findings suggest a series of modifications to the frog skin model proposed by Koefoed-Johnsen and Ussing, the salient feature of which is the localization of the Na+ pump along all cell membranes facing the intercellular spaces of the epidermis.
ScienceTransport of Protein by Goldfish Optic Nerve Fibers
180 Citations1967Bernice Grafstein
After tritiated leucine was injected into the eye of goldfish, radio-active protein synthesized by the ganglion cell bodies moved down the optic axons at an average rate of 0.4 mm per day, suggesting a special mechanism for rapid transport of protein from the cell body to the synaptic terminals.
The Journal of Cell BiologyThe Cytological Localization of Intracellular Neuronal Acetylcholinesterase
92 Citations1959Tetsuo Fukuda, George B. Koelle
Observations provide support for the hypothesis that acetylcholinesterase is synthesized within the endoplasmic reticulum, then transported via its canaliculi to the surface of the cell and its processes, where its functional sites are oriented externally to the lipoidal membrane.

The experiments were predicated on the assumption that labeled amino acid introduced into one of the nasal cavities would penetrate into the sensory perikarya in the lining and be incorporated into their proteins and this expectation has been confirmed by the results.

There is a considerable degree of certainty that most of the labeled phospholipids of the hypoglossal and vagal nerves are present inside the axon and that in intact nerves, the Schwann cells and the connective tissue cells of the peri- and endoneurium synthesize negligible amounts of 32 P-lipids.

28 Citations1967P. Kása, B. Csillik
From these electron histochemical studies it is concluded that enzyme protein molecules, synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum, are translocated to the active sites (surface membranes) via axonal filaments (or tubules), or will be extruded from the neuron via the Golgi system.
