Mutations in the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) biosynthesis pathway are associated with progressive neurodegeneration; neuronal injury causes rapid breakdown of damaged axons and dendrites. NAD+ reduction is thought to underlie both types of degeneration by inducing neuronal self-destruction. Here, we show that phagocytosis, instead of self-destruction, drives degeneration of Drosophila sensory dendrites in both injury and genetic NAD+ disruptions. Mechanistically, phagocytosis is induced earlier than self-destruction by these manipulations, as a result of phosphatidylserine exposure on the dendrite surface. In addition, injured dendrites exhibit unique calcium dynamics and only partially require the axon-death factor Axed for self-destruction. Thus, our results suggest important contributions of phagocytosis to NAD+-related neurodegenerative diseases and highlight the difference between dendrite and axon degeneration. After injury, severed dendrites and axons expose the “eat-me” signal phosphatidylserine (PS) on their surface while they break down. The degeneration of injured axons is controlled by a conserved Wallerian degeneration (WD) pathway, which is thought to activate neurite self-destruction through Sarm-mediated nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) depletion. While neurite PS exposure is known to be affected by genetic manipulations of NAD+, how the WD pathway coordinates both neurite PS exposure and self-destruction and whether PS-induced phagocytosis contributes to neurite breakdown in vivo remain unknown. Here, we show that in Drosophila sensory dendrites, PS exposure and self-destruction are two sequential steps of WD resulting from Sarm activation. Surprisingly, phagocytosis is the main driver of dendrite degeneration induced by both genetic NAD+ disruptions and injury. However, unlike neuronal Nmnat loss, which triggers PS exposure only and results in phagocytosis-dependent dendrite degeneration, injury activates both PS exposure and self-destruction as two redundant means of dendrite degeneration. Furthermore, the axon-death factor Axed is only partially required for self-destruction of injured dendrites, acting in parallel with PS-induced phagocytosis. Lastly, injured dendrites exhibit a unique rhythmic calcium-flashing that correlates with WD. Therefore, both NAD+-related general mechanisms and dendrite-specific programs govern PS exposure and self-destruction in injury-induced dendrite degeneration in vivo.
