    PTBP1 depletion in mature astrocytes reveals distinct splicing alterations without neuronal features

    Min Zhang, Naoto Kubota ... Sika Zheng
    PTBP1 loss in mature astrocytes causes unique astrocytic splicing changes, not neuronal-like, contrasting its role in other non-neuronal cells and indicating PTBP1 depletion alone is ineffective to drive adult-astrocyte-to-neuron conversion.

    Peripheral glia and neurons jointly regulate activity-induced synaptic remodeling at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction

    Yen-Ching Chang, Yi-Jheng Peng ... Karen T Chang
    Peripheral glia regulate synaptic remodeling at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction by balancing neuron-derived signals and controlling ambient glutamate levels, thereby revealing distinct glial mechanisms in activity-dependent synaptic plasticity.
