Big news!! Our paper about astrocyte NMDA receptors is out in Nature Communications! https://t.co/L2YDsDxVzI
This team effort was spearheaded by @NoushinAhmadpo1@MeherKantroo
Thanks to the Reviewers for suggesting "mechanism" experiments that took this story to the next level!
Timing of the first peak in astrocytic Ca2+ levels was significantly earlier than capillary dilations following PVIN stimulation +PA or 1storder capillary dilation following PVIN stimulation grouped according to the detection of a preceding astrocytic and was reduced after DSP-4
The earliest PVIN-dependent astrocytic Ca2+increases are susceptible to reduced cortical NA levels. Changes in vascular lumen and astrocytic Ca2+levels following 2 s PVIN stimulation and how it is modified after DSP-4 treatment. Visualised through hypothesis-based alignment.
