Disentangling astroglial physiology with a realistic cell model in silico
Astrocytes have gained increasing attention for their roles in regulating neural circuits via neurotransmitter uptake, K + buffering, and ability to signal via Ca2 + transients. Here, the authors develop a computational modelling environment for astrocytes, akin to the NEURON environment, called AST...
