Enhanced Actin Dynamics: A Therapeutic Strategy for Axonal Regeneration?

Spinal cord injury causes permanent paralysis due to the inability of neurons in the central nervous system to regenerate transected axons. In this issue of Neuron, Tedeschi et al. (2019) report that axonal regrowth can be stimulated by actin-depolymerizing proteins, at least in mice.
