It seems likely that multiple signaling pathways, some involving kinases, function cooperatively to define precise sites of synapse formation between axons and dendrites, and to determine ...

In the brain, neurons are wired together via axons and synapses, whose anomalies during development underlie many neurological diseases. In developmental neuroscience, a group led by Zhenge Luo ...

Central to this activity are synapses, the junctions where branches of neurons connect, similar to electrical wires. Here, an axon from one neuron links to a dendrite of another. At these synapses ...
