DOI: 10.1002/glia.23169
Abstract: Astrocytes, a major type of glia, reciprocally influence synaptic transmission and connectivity, forming the “tripartite synapses”. Astrocytic metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR)‐mediated Ca2+ waves and release of gliotransmitters or synaptogenic molecules mediate this neuron‐glia interaction in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.640937
Abstract: The role of microglia in controlling synapse homeostasis is becoming increasingly recognized by the scientific community. In particular, the microglia-mediated elimination of supernumerary synapses during development lays the basis for the correct formation of neuronal… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020711
Abstract: Memory traces are believed to be broadly allocated in cerebral cortices and the hippocampus. Mutual synapse innervations among these brain areas are presumably formed in associative memory. In the present study, we have used neuronal… read more here.
