Developmental neuronal remodeling has gained increasing research interest in recent years. In-depth understanding into its mechanisms may offer potentials for an ultimate cure for neurodegenerative diseases. Some neurons can regrow their axons or dendrites after pruning to rewire the neuronal circui...
