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.
