The synaptic receptor Lrp4 promotes peripheral nerve regeneration
Axons of the peripheral nervous system regenerate along Schwann cells following injury. Here, the authors show that regenerating axons follow pioneer axons and this process is mediated by lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (Lrp4), a protein otherwise known for its role in synapse formation.
