Deciphering the star codings: astrocyte manipulation alters mouse behavior
Animal behavior: Starring roles for star-shaped cells Genetic studies provide increased evidence that astrocytes, star-shaped cells in the central nervous system, play important roles affecting behavior in mammals. Although they are just as abundant as neurons, astrocytes are not excited by electric...
