Astrocyte Regulation of Neuronal Excitability In Vivo
Ken McCarthy
Neuronal hyperexcitability and excitotoxicity are thought to underlie a number of clinical disorders. Unfortunately, very little is known about the mechanisms that lead to excessive neuronal activity... [More Info]

Neuronal-Astrocytic Communications In Vivo
Ken McCarthy
Research clearly demonstrates that astrocytes in situ sense neurotransmitters released during neuronal activity, and release neuroactive molecules in response to specific stimuli. What remains unclear... [More Info]
