Defects in dendritic spines are common to several forms of cognitive deficits, including mental retardation and Alzheimer disease. Because mutation of p21-activated kinase (PAK) can lead to mental retardation and because PAK-cofilin signaling is critical in dendritic spine morphogenesis and actin dynamics, we hypothesized that the PAK pathway is in...
