Dendrites are intricately designed neuronal compartments that play a vital role in the
gathering and processing of sensory or synaptic inputs. Their diverse and elaborate …

Neurons develop dendritic morphologies that bear cell type-specific features in dendritic
field size and geometry, branch placement and density, and the types and distributions of …

Cellular protein homeostasis, or proteostasis, is indispensable to the survival and function of
all cells. Distinct from other cell types, neurons are long-lived, exhibiting architecturally …

Uncovering molecular mechanisms regulating dendritic diversification is essential to
understanding the formation and modulation of functional neural circuitry. Transcription …

Dendrite shape impacts functional connectivity and is mediated by organization and
dynamics of cytoskeletal fibers. Identifying the molecular factors that regulate dendritic …

Dendrites function as the primary sites for synaptic input and integration with impairments in
dendritic arborization being associated with dysfunctional neuronal circuitry. Post-mitotic …

The Drosophila tracheal system is a favorable model for investigating the program of tubular
morphogenesis. This system is established in the embryo by post-mitotic cells, but also …

Axons are the narrow, up-to-meter long cellular processes of neurons that form the
biological cables wiring our nervous system. Most axons must survive for an organism's …

Rare genetic diseases preponderantly affect the nervous system causing
neurodegeneration to neurodevelopmental disorders. This is the case for both Menkes and …

Dendritic arbor morphology influences how neurons receive and integrate extracellular
signals. We show that the ELAV/Hu family RNA-binding protein Found in neurons (Fne) is …
