Axons damaged by acute injury, toxic insults or during neurodegenerative diseases undergo Wallerian or Wallerian-like degeneration, which is an active and orderly cellular process but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood [1-3]. Drosophila has been proven a successful system for modeling human neurodegenerative diseases [4, 5] . In this study, we established a novel in vivo model of axon injury using the adult fly wing. The wing nerve highlighted by fluorescent
