Astrocytes as Active Participants in Memory
This review explores how astrocytes support memory by modulating neurotransmitters, interacting with biomolecules, and taking part in synaptic plasticity. We discuss their role across various brain regions and spotlight cutting‐edge methods—such as Ca2+ imaging, optogenetics, chemogenetics, and engram analysis—that have revolutionized our ability to ...

Autonomic effects of electroacupuncture in opioid‐induced constipation in male rats
Abstract The efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA) for opioid‐induced constipation (OIC) has been reported; however, the mechanism has not been sufficiently studied, and the details have not been clarified. The aims of this study were to demonstrate the delay in rat colonic transit (CT) caused by loperamide, a peripheral μ‐opioid receptor agonist, and to
