Lipophorin receptors (LpRs) regulate structural and functional development of neurons in Drosophila. Here authors demonstrate how short isoforms of LpR1 mediates astrocyte lipid shuttling to neuron through interacting with glia lipoprotein GLaz and the role of this pathway in dendritic morphogenesis in the fly brain.
