Astrocytic GABA transporter activity modulates excitatory neurotransmission
Astrocytes monitor and regulate both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic activity. Here, the authors identify a novel form of neuronal-glia communication, by which astrocytes detect rises in GABA via the GABA transporter GAT-3; this results in adenosine release that acts presynaptically to inhibit ne...
