Tau and spectraplakins promote synapse formation and maintenance through Jun kinase and neuronal trafficking
The mechanisms regulating synapse numbers during development and ageing are essential for normal brain function and closely linked to brain disorders including dementias. Using Drosophila, we demonstrate roles of the microtubule-associated protein Tau in regulating synapse numbers, thus unravelling...
