Peripheral glia have a pivotal role in the initial response to axon degeneration of peripheral sensory neurons in zebrafish.
Axon degeneration is a feature of many peripheral neuropathies. Understanding the organismal response to this degeneration may aid in identifying new therapeutic targets for treatment. Using a transgenic zebrafish line expressing a bacterial nitroreductase (Ntr)/mCherry fusion protein in the periphe...
