Synaptic integration by NG2 cells
NG2 expressing oligodendrocyte precursor cells stand out from other types of glial cells by receiving classical synaptic contacts from many neurons. This unconventional form of signalling between neurons and glial cells enables NG2 cells to receive information about the activity of presynaptic neuro...
