What happens to the brain when neurons fall silent?
In a new iScience paper, Auguste and the team show that silencing synaptic release via Snap25 deletion triggers circuit-specific astrocyte and microglial remodeling across the brain and spinal cord.

Thank you @PhyloBrain, you kept going for the most fundamental questions of brain evolution in spite of all the difficulties over the last two decades.

[Zoltan Molnar @ZoltanMolnar64]

Collaborative work between the Mann and Molnár Groups at @OxfordDPAG have studied a small group of specialized brain cells to investigate how they play a powerful role in keeping us alert and helping our brains process sensory information (https://t.co/PdVzkJTA7X).

Our new paper on developing #brain demonstrates that phospholipid scramblase #Xkr8 is developmentally regulated in the mouse brain and required for postnatal axonal pruning. https://t.co/cPtlauuc6o

.@FGinhoux calls a new approach for exploring the role of microglia in neurodevelopment exciting, "but it is really just the beginning," he says. How do you think this method can benefit the field?

My (admittedly very rough) attempt at a Hubble v #JWST comparison. And this is literally just the beginning.

When does spontaneous and regulated synaptic vesicle release play a part in neuronal development? Is (a) axon outgrowth (b) establishment of synapses (c) neuronal communication? Read our review on the role of SNARE proteins in cortical development: https://t.co/vbCJmjtmx5
