Neuron Support Squad: Perlecan Protein Key to Synaptic Durability

Summary: A new study discovered the critical role that Perlecan, a protein, plays in maintaining the structural integrity of neurons, particularly the long branches called axons. The study found that in the absence of Perlecan, axons in Drosophila fruit flies broke apart during development, leading to the death of their connections or synapses. Perlecan aids in...
