Two Drosophila model neurons can regenerate axons from the stump or from a converted dendrite, with feedback between the two sites

BACKGROUND: After axon severing, neurons recover function by reinitiating axon outgrowth. New outgrowth often originates from the remaining axon stump. However, in many mammalian neurons, new axons initiate from a dendritic site when the axon is injured close to the cell body. METHODS: Drosophila se...
