Endocytic trafficking is required for neuron cell death through regulating TGF-beta signaling in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>

Programmed cell death (PCD) is an essential feature during the development of the central nervous system in Drosophila as well as in mammals. During metamorphosis, a group of peptidergic neurons (vCrz) are eliminated from the larval central nervous system (CNS) via PCD within 6-7 h after puparium f...
