Dendrites are key integrators of synaptic information in neurons and play vital roles in
neuronal plasticity. Hence, it is necessary that dendrite arborization is precisely controlled …

Although dendrite arborization patterns are hallmarks of neuronal type and critical
determinants of neuronal function, how dendritic arbors take shape is still largely unknown …

The nervous system is populated by numerous types of neurons, each bearing a dendritic
arbor with a characteristic morphology. These type-specific features influence many aspects …

Dendrite development is an important and unsolved problem in neuroscience. The nervous
system is composed of a vast number of neurons with strikingly different morphology …

Synapse formation involves two partners, axons and dendrites. The axon of a presynaptic
neuron needs to be properly guided to make synapses with the correct targets, which are …

Signaling between neurons requires highly specialized subcellular structures, including
dendrites and axons. Dendrites exhibit diverse morphologies yet little is known about the …

Morphological diversity of dendrites contributes to specialized functions of individual
neurons. In the present study, we examined the molecular basis that generates distinct …

Proper growth and branching of dendrites are crucial for nervous system function; patterns of
dendritic arborization determine the nature and amount of innervation that a neuron receives …

The genesis of dendritic shape during development sets in place key characteristics of a
neuron's physiology and connectivity. During this construction, a cell interprets intrinsic cell …

In recent years, Drosophila melanogaster has emerged as a powerful model for neuronal
circuit development, pathology, and function. A major impediment to these studies has been …
