Neuronal activity drives pathway-specific depolarization of peripheral astrocyte processes

Moritz Armbruster et al.

Summary: This study reveals a novel form of communication between astrocytes and neurons, where neuronal activity induces significant depolarizations in astrocyte processes. These depolarizations are driven by presynaptic potassium efflux and glutamate transporters, and they inhibit astrocyte glutamate clearance, enhancing neuronal activation by glutamate.

Ion Channels and Electrophysiological Properties of Astrocytes: Implications for Emergent Stimulation Technologies

Jessica McNeill et al.

Summary: Astrocytes are electrically dynamic cells with diverse electrophysiological properties, including polarization, ion channel expression, and intracellular Ca2+ signaling. They play crucial roles in regulating K+ and expressing various types of Na+ channels, with different functional properties at regional and cellular levels.

Calcium Signals in Astrocyte Microdomains, a Decade of Great Advances

Annamaria Lia et al.

Summary: Astrocytes are recognized as crucial neuron-supporting elements in brain development and metabolism, and their communication with neurons through cytosolic Ca2+ elevations is a fundamental mechanism in modulating synaptic transmission. Recent studies using genetically encoded Ca2+ indicators and advanced microscopy techniques have elucidated key features of astrocyte Ca2+ activity in microdomains.
