Mitochondria and Caspases Tune Nmnat-Mediated Stabilization to Promote Axon Regeneration.
Axon injury can lead to several cell survival responses including increased stability and axon regeneration. Using an accessible Drosophila model system, we investigated the regulation of injury responses and their relationship. Axon injury stabilizes the rest of the cell, including the entire dendr...
