Regeneration in crustacean motoneurons: evidence for axonal fusion

R R Hoy et al. Science. .

Abstract

Crayfish motor axons remain excitable for over 100 days after severance from their central cell bodies, and continue to store and release normal amounts of transmitter substance. Evidence indicates that regeneration occurs by fusion of the central process with its surviving peripheral segment.
