This study traces the lineage of spinal cord progenitors in mice to show that individual progenitors can generate diverse neuron and astrocyte types, challenging the idea of fixed progenitor identities.

This study identifies multipotent progenitors in the superior colliculus that generate all excitatory and inhibitory neuron types without extrinsic input.

The paper shows astroglial glutamine supply is essential for synaptic activity and memory via connexin43-mediated transport.

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