Astrocyte Calcium Signal and Gliotransmission in Human Brain Tissue
2012
Cerebral Cortex
M. N. and G. P. contributed equally to this work. Brain function is recognized to rely on neuronal activity and signaling processes between neurons, whereas astrocytes are generally considered to play supportive roles for proper neuronal function. However, accumulating evidence indicates that astrocytes sense and control neuronal and synaptic activity, indicating that neuron and astrocytes reciprocally communicate. While this evidence has been obtained in experimental animal models, whether
