This study shows that hippocampal astrocytes encode context-specific aversive stimuli to regulate fear-related behavior through Ca2+ activity preceding freezing responses.

This study investigates the role of astrocytic mGluR5 signaling in adult mice, showing its impact on emotional and cognitive behaviors through hippocampal function.

This study identifies Foxo1 as a key regulator of astrocytic calcium signaling in the hippocampus, influencing spinogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and fear memory.

The paper identifies molecularly distinct astrocyte subpopulations in the adult mouse brain and shows their spatial distribution has functional implications.
