The MAP kinase phosphatase MKP-1 regulates BDNF-induced axon branching

The refinement of neural circuits during development depends upon a dynamic process of branching of axons and dendrites that leads to synapse formation and connectivity. The neurotrophin BDNF plays an essential role in the outgrowth and activity-dependent remodeling of axonal arbors in vivo. However...
