This study identifies impaired astrocytic Cx43 syncytial networks in the lateral habenula as a driver of adolescent stress-induced depression through disrupted synaptic connectivity and neuronal function.

This study investigates the role of P2X7 receptors in astrocytic atrophy following status epilepticus in mice, showing that P2X7R antagonism prevents astrocyte damage.

This study identifies microglial connexin43 hemichannels as a therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease, showing that blocking them reduces pathology and cognitive impairment in mouse models.

This study shows electroacupuncture prevents astrocyte atrophy in mice with depression-like behaviors, suggesting astrocytes as a target for treatment.

This study shows that ECM attenuation increases synapse number but suppresses synaptic plasticity by reducing neuronal excitability and impairing LTP.
