Deskripsi

Astrocytes can engulf axonal debris in the developing brain. However, the mechanisms regulating astrocyte recruitment to the proper axons is unclear. Here, the authors identify Orion as a signal for astrocyte infiltration and engulfment to the mushroom bodies in the Drosophila developing brain.
