Advanced Science, EarlyView.The cellular actors of oxytocin signaling are under intense scrutiny. A brain‐wide anatomical and functional analysis in mice and rats reveals widespread expression of oxytocin receptors in astrocytes. These receptors are functionally active and, in the nucleus accumbens, selectively regulate male social affiliation.

Investigating the Role of Annexin A2 in Astrocyte-Mediated Clearance of Tau Aggregates [PDF]
reservedFor many years, astrocytes were primarily thought to function as supportive and structural elements in the brain. However, recent studies have revealed that they play much more complex and significant roles in the central nervous system (CNS ...

m6A‐Mediated Glycolysis by IL‐37 Drives T Cell Metabolic Reprogramming to Regulate Colitis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies an IL‐37/SIGIRR‐METTL14 regulatory axis that suppresses global m6A modification in CD4+ T cells. IL‐37 signaling, mediated through SIGIRR, inhibits IRAK4 and JNK phosphorylation, leading to downregulation of the methyltransferase METTL14.

Enhancing Maturation of Human Neuromuscular Organoids via Electrical Stimulation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A framework for on‐demand and non‐invasive exposure of human neuromuscular organoids (NMOs) to electrical stimuli is established to promote their maturation. The robustness and effectiveness of different stimulation regimes are evaluated via thorough characterization of organoid tissue structure and contraction capacity. Chronic electrical stimulation,

Investigation of in-vivo effects of astrocyte overstimulation in the PPN using DREADDs and behavioral tests in mice [PDF]
Astrocytes maintain and stabilize PPN neural function, with a variety of mechanisms, whilst also having the potential to directly influence neuronal function through neuromodulatory receptors and calcium waves.

Senolytic Therapy as a Preventive Strategy for Spine Degeneration and Pain
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cellular senescence promotes inflammation, tissue degeneration, and chronic back pain. In sparc‐null mice, early oral administration of the senolytic agents o‐vanillin and RG‐7112 reduced senescent cell burden and pro‐inflammatory SASP signaling across intervertebral discs, endplates, vertebral bone, and spinal cord.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Glaucoma, a major cause of blindness, involves retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration. This study shows growth hormone‐releasing hormone receptor (GHRHR) deficiency preserves RGC survival and restores vision, unlike activation which only aids survival.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ANKS1B in the nucleus accumbens plays a critical role in the transition from controlled to escalated cocaine intake. Mechanistically, ANKS1B interacts with CBP to epigenetically suppress FoxO3 through H3K27 acetylation. The ANKS1B‐CBP‐FoxO3 signaling cascade presents a novel theraputic target for the treatment of cocaine addiction.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Bone cancer pain and depression share a common origin: astrocytic A2‐to‐A1 transition in the posterior piriform cortex. This phenotypic shift disrupts the ATP–adenosine–A2AR–norepinephrine axis, simultaneously driving nociceptive and affective dysfunction.

The role of astrocytes in stroke, brain plasticity and neurogenesis [PDF]
, 2013 Astrocytes, one of the most abundant and heterogeneous cell types in the central nervous system, fulfill many important roles in the healthy and injured brain.
