Integrated Brain Circuits: Neuron-Astrocyte Interaction in Sleep-Related Rhythmogenesis
Although astrocytes are increasingly recognized as important modulators of neuronal excitability and information transfer at the synapse, whether these cells regulate neuronal network activity has only recently started to be investigated. In this article, we highlight the role of astrocytes in the m...
