Abstract excerpt
Astrocytes are increasingly being recognized as contributors to physiological brain function and behavior. Astrocytes engage in glia-synaptic interactions through peripheral astrocyte processes, thus modulating synaptic signaling, for example, by handling glutamate removal from the synaptic cleft and (re)provision to axonal terminals. Peripheral astrocyte processes are ultrafine membrane protrusions rich in the...
