Mechanistic insights into an axon death pathway controlled by NAD-related metabolism

Studies of axon degeneration following an injury, known as Wallerian degeneration, and the axon-protective protein WLDs revealed a strong link between NAD metabolism and the mechanisms resulting in axonal destruction. Current knowledge indicates that the labile axonal NAD-synthesising enzyme NMNAT2...
