Glial cells maintain synapses by inhibiting an activity-dependent retrograde protease signal.

Glial cells maintain synapses by inhibiting an activity-dependent retrograde protease signal.

Glial cells regulate multiple aspects of synaptogenesis. In the absence of Schwann cells, a peripheral glial cell, motor neurons initially innervate muscle but then degenerate. Here, using a genetic approach, we show that neural activity-regulated negative factors produced by muscle drive neurodegen...
