Astrocytes are the most abundant glial cell type in the central nervous system and are
essential to the development, plasticity, and maintenance of neural circuits. Astrocytes are …

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 …

Human brains vary across people and over time; such variation is not yet understood in
cellular terms. Here we describe a relationship between people's cortical neurons and …

The neuropeptide oxytocin has been in the focus of scientists for decades due to its
profound and pleiotropic effects on physiology, activity of neuronal circuits and behaviors …

Astrocyte diversity is greatly influenced by local environmental modulation. Here we report
that the majority of astrocytes across the mouse brain possess a singular primary cilium …

In addition to their many functions in the healthy central nervous system (CNS), astrocytes
respond to CNS damage and disease through a process called “reactivity.” Recent evidence …

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) represents a significant health concern, necessitating advanced
therapeutic interventions. This detailed review explores the critical roles of astrocytes, key …

Curcumin is a pleiotropic molecule with well-known anti-inflammatory effects. This molecule
has attracted attention due to its capacity to pass the blood–brain–barrier and modulate …

Learning and memory are fundamental but highly complex functions of the brain. They rely
on multiple mechanisms including the processing of sensory information, memory formation …

Critical periods are temporally-restricted, early-life windows when sensory experience
remodels synaptic connectivity to optimize environmental input. In the Drosophila juvenile …
