Abstract
Although modulating the neuronal cytoskeleton has been deemed a promising approach to enhance mammalian axon regeneration, only a few studies have shown convincing results, especially in the central nervous system. Wang et al. demonstrate that the deletion of non-muscle myosin II sufficiently induces significant mammalian CNS axon regeneration in vivo.
