Dopaminergic control of astrocytic calcium dynamics in situ and its potential effect on local synaptic activity

Astrocytes in culture display large cytosolic calcium increases upon stimulation with dopamine, however the mechanism and physiological significance of this calcium response is still unknown. In this thesis, I demonstrate that hippocampal astrocytes in situ respond to dopamine with similar large cal...
