This project explores the role of astrocytes in the brain's neuronal signaling, particularly how they influence the transfer of information in neural networks. It aims to uncover the physiological mechanisms behind astrocyte involvement in synaptic processes.
Evidence has been emerging for astrocytes to play an important role in neuronal cooperation and information processing in the brain.
Recent work has suggested that their activity may even regulate the shape of action potentials in the axon and thus the efficacy of synaptic transmission.
However, the underlying physiological machinery remains poorly understood.
We propose here that astrocytes play an active role in the analogue-digital regulation of presynaptic signalling.
