Microglial P2Y12 receptor regulates ventral hippocampal CA1 neuronal excitability and innate fear in mice
Abstract The P2Y12 receptor (P2Y12R) is a purinoceptor that is selectively expressed in microglia in the central nervous system. As a signature receptor, microglial P2Y12R mediates process chemotaxis towards ADP/ATP gradients and is engaged in several neurological diseases including chronic pain, st...
