Oligodendrocytes regulate presynaptic properties and neurotransmission through BDNF signaling in the mouse brainstem

Neuron–glia communication contributes to the fine-tuning of synaptic functions. Oligodendrocytes near synapses detect and respond to neuronal activity, but their role in synapse development and plasticity remains largely unexplored. We show that oligodendrocytes modulate neurotransmitter release at...
