Highlights d Glial cells decode synaptic competition via P2Y1R activation and Ca 2+ elevation d Glial cells preferentially enhance transmitter release of the stronger terminal d Glial cells target presynaptic A2ARs to regulate synaptic activity d Daily injections of a P2Y1R antagonist delays synapse elimination in vivo
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
