Channel-mediated astrocytic glutamate release via Bestrophin-1 targets synaptic NMDARs
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Astrocytes regulate neuronal excitability and synaptic activity by releasing gliotransmitters such as glutamate. Our recent study demonstrated that astrocytes release glutamate upon GPCR activation via Ca<sup>2+</sup> act...
