This study identifies microglia as key regulators of cerebral blood flow and neurovascular coupling through P2Y12R-mediated mechanisms in mice and humans.

This study identifies somatic purinergic junctions between microglia and developing neurons across developmental stages, suggesting they facilitate communication and regulation of neurogenesis.

The paper identifies specialized somatic microglia-neuron junctions that enable microglia to monitor and protect neuronal function through purinergic signaling.

The paper shows that mitochondrial ultrastructure in axons correlates with synaptic performance in mice and humans, indicating activity-dependent plasticity of mitochondria in response to synaptic demand.
