Abstract: The ESCRT complex protein Vps4 is rapidly depleted upon nerve injury, causing autophagic impediment and axonal degeneration. Injured axons undergo a controlled, self-destruction process, known as Wallerian degeneration. However, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Using… read more here.
