This study compares postnatal maturation of the gliovascular unit in male and female mice, revealing sex-specific differences in angiogenesis, cell composition, and transcriptomic trajectories regulated by oestrogenic signalling.

This study examines the spatial organization and proximity of macroglial cells to blood vessels during postnatal brain development, revealing distinct developmental patterns for astrocytes and oligodendrocytes.

This study identifies vascular dysfunction as a key contributor to oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in mice by showing increased vasoconstriction and hypoxia, which can be mitigated by vasodilators.

This study identifies RACK1 as a repressor of KIR4.1 translation in astrocytes, showing its role in regulating neuronal activity through modulation of KIR4.1 expression.

This study shows that MLC1 is essential for postnatal development of the gliovascular unit, leading to vascular and fluid clearance defects in a mouse model of megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy.

The paper compares molecular and functional maturation of brain vascular cells in mice and humans during postnatal development, identifying key markers and processes in endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells.

The paper identifies a unique molecular repertoire in hippocampal perisynaptic astrocytic processes, regulated by local translation during fear conditioning.

The paper introduces AstroDot, a method to study mRNA distribution in astrocytes, showing Gfap and Gfap delta mRNAs localize with GFAP in processes and show changes in Alzheimer's disease.
