Augmentation of Ca2+ signaling in astrocytic endfeet in the latent phase of temporal lobe epilepsy

Astrocytic endfeet are specialized cell compartments whose important homeostatic roles depend on their enrichment of water and ion channels anchored by the dystrophin associated protein complex. This protein complex is known to disassemble in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy and in the la...
