Neuromodulators signal through astrocytes to alter neural circuit activity and behavior

Astrocytes associate with synapses throughout the brain and express receptors for neurotransmitters that can elevate intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) (1-3). Astrocyte Ca(2+) signaling has been proposed to modulate neural circuit activity (4), but pathways regulating these events are poorly defined and...
