Two-photon in vivo imaging reveals cell type-specific mitophagy dynamic changes in mouse somatosensory cortex during aging

Beatriz Escobar-Doncel, Xiaoyi Zhang, Åsne Ljøstad, Mario Fernández de la Puebla, Shreyas Balachandra Rao, Synnøve Algrøy Fjeldstad, M. Dahle, Mahmood Reza Amiry-Moghaddam, Magnar Bjørås, Wannan Tang

This study uses two-photon imaging to show that mitophagy decreases with age in mouse somatosensory cortex neurons and astrocytes, with astrocytes showing higher mitophagy levels than neurons, and NAD+ treatment improves mitophagy in aged mice.

Impaired astrocytic Ca2+ signalling in awake Alzheimer's disease transgenic mice

Knut Sindre Åbjørsbråten, Gry H. E. Syverstad Skaaraas, Céline Cunen, Daniel M. Bjørnstad, Kristin M. Gullestad Binder, Laura Bojarskaite, Vidar Jensen, Lars N. G. Nilsson, Shreyas Balachandra Rao, Wannan Tang, Gudmund Horn Hermansen, Erlend Arnulf Nagelhus, Ole Petter Ottersen, Reidun Torp, Rune Enger

The paper shows reduced astrocytic Ca2+ signaling and uncoupling from pupil responses in Alzheimer's disease mice during awake behavior.

Membrane Ca2+ permeability and IP3R2 dependent Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release are essential for astrocytic intracellular Ca2+ elevation upon neuronal stimulation at the mouse hippocampal CA3 - CA1 excitatory synapses

Jarand B. Hjukse, Gry Fluge Vindedal, Rolf Sprengel, Vidar Jensen, Erlend Arnulf Nagelhus, Wannan Tang

The paper investigates how neuronal stimulation leads to astrocytic Ca2+ elevation through membrane permeability and IP3R2-dependent Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release at mouse hippocampal synapses.
