Evidence for the Transient Presence of Atypical Astrocytes in Mice Following a Single, Closed-Head Mild Traumatic Brain Injury

This study shows that a single closed-head mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in mice temporarily increases atypical astrocytes (AtAs) but they do not persist long-term, unlike in repeated mTBI.

Multifunctional requirements for ERK1/2 signaling in the development of ganglionic eminence derived glia and cortical inhibitory neurons

This study investigates the role of ERK1/2 signaling in the development of MGE-derived glia and cortical inhibitory neurons, showing its necessity for glial number and activity-dependent responses in neurons.

Hyperactive MEK1 signaling in cortical GABAergic neurons causes embryonic parvalbumin-neuron death and defects in behavioral inhibition
