HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Mediates Oligodendrocyte-Neuron Communication and colleagues from the Department of Molecular Cell Biology, University of Mainz, Mainz, Germany, Focus Program Translational Neuroscience, University of Mainz, Mainz, Germany, Max have published the paper: Neurotransmitter-Triggered Transfer of Exosomes Mediates Oligodendrocyte-Neuron Communication, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of April/19,/2013
- what: The authors show that activity-dependent release of the neurotransmitter glutamate triggers oligodendroglial exosome secretion mediated by Ca2+ entry through oligodendroglial NMDA and AMPA receptors. This study explores the possibility of horizontal transfer of molecules from oligodendrocytes to neurons by vesicles secreted from MVBs . . .
