Abstract
En 中文
Whether astrocytes form selective long-range networks remains unresolved. Cooper et al. use connexin 43-TurboID to reveal region-specific, plastic astrocyte gap-junction networks that partly overlap yet are not reducible to canonical neuronal projections. We discuss how this work refines the concept of astrocyte syncytial coupling and expands models of inter-regional brain connectivity.
