ATP-Mediated Glia Signaling
Open accessAbstract
Glia calcium signaling has recently been identified as a potent modulator of synaptic transmission. We show here that the spatial expansion of calcium waves is mediated by ATP and subsequent activation of purinergic receptors. Ectopic expression of gap junction proteins, connexins (Cxs), leads to an increase in both ATP release and the radius of calcium wave propagation. Cx expression was also associated with a phenotypic transformation, and cortical neurons extended longer neurites when co-cultured with Cx-expressing than with Cx-deficient cells. Purinergic receptor activation mediated both these effects, because treatment with receptor antagonists restored the glia phenotype and slowed neurite outgrowth. These results identify a key role of ATP in both short-term calcium signaling events and in long-term differentiation regulated by glia.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
