PKA and PKC Balance in Synapse Elimination during Neuromuscular Junction Development

During the development of the nervous system, synaptogenesis occurs in excess though only the appropriate connections consolidate. At the neuromuscular junction, competition between several motor nerve terminals results in the maturation of a single axon and the elimination of the others. The activi...
