Fibroblast growth factor 22 (FGF22) contributes to the development of retinal nerve terminals in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus

Fibroblast growth factor 22 (FGF22) contributes to the development of retinal nerve terminals in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus

At least three forms of signaling between pre and postsynaptic partners are necessary during synapse formation. First, ‘targeting’ signals instruct presynaptic axons to recognize and adhere to the correct portion of a postsynaptic target cell. Second, trans-synaptic ‘organizing’ signals induce diffe...
