Neural Circuit-Specialized Astrocytes:Transcriptomic, Proteomic, Morphological, and Functional EvidenceHua Chai, Blanca Diaz-Castro,Eiji Shigetomi, …, Julian P. Whitelegge,Giovanni Coppola, Baljit S. KhakhNeuronNeuroResourceVolume 95, Issue 3, 2 August 2017, Pages 531–549.e9 Highlights:
•Multiple approaches were used to assess astrocyte diversity in two neural circuits
•Physiological and anatomical studies showed evidence for astrocyte functional diversity
•RNA-seq, proteomic, and cell marker analyses confirmed diversity
•Evidence is provided for brain neural-circuit-specialized astrocytes
