Astrocytes serve important roles that affect recruitment and function of neurons at the local
and network levels. Here we review the contributions of astrocyte signaling to synaptic …

Astrocytes are a large and diverse population of morphologically complex cells that exist
throughout nervous systems of multiple species. Progress over the last two decades has …

In the mammalian brain information processing and storage rely on the complex coding and
decoding events performed by neuronal networks. These actions are based on the …

Non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, characterized by slow-wave electrophysiological
activity, underlies several critical functions, including learning and memory. However, NREM …

Brain circuits undergo substantial structural changes during development, driven by the
formation, stabilization, and elimination of synapses. Synaptic connections continue to …

Astrocytes are known to influence neuronal activity through different mechanisms, including
the homeostatic control of extracellular levels of ions and neurotransmitters and the …

Astrocytes are fundamental players in the regulation of synaptic transmission and plasticity.
They display unique morphological and phenotypical features that allow to monitor and to …

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is a hub for cognitive control, and dopamine profoundly
influences its functions. In other brain regions, astrocytes sense diverse neurotransmitters …

Over the last 15 years, the field of neuroscience has evolved toward recognizing the critical
role of astroglia in sha** neuronal synaptic activity and along with the pre-and …

Neuronal signalling is a key element in neuronal communication and is essential for the
proper functioning of the CNS. Astrocytes, the most prominent glia in the brain play a key …
