Low FoxO expression in Drosophila somatosensory neurons protects dendrite growth under nutrient restriction

During prolonged nutrient restriction, developing animals redistribute vital nutrients to favor brain growth at the expense of other organs. In Drosophila, such brain sparing relies on a glia-derived growth factor to sustain proliferation of neural stem cells. However, whether other aspects of neura...
