Setd1a Deficiency Disrupts Axonal Growth (IMAGE) The Zuckerman Institute at Columbia University Caption Representative image showing differences in axon terminal branching from the brains of normal mice (left) compared to mice with lower levels of SETD1A. By administering an LSD1 inhibitor in adult SETD1A-deficient mice, the researchers rescued this stunted growth to near-normal levels.
