Neuron–Astrocyte Liaison to Maintain Lipid Metabolism of Brain

Publication date: Available online 8 August 2019Source: Trends in Endocrinology & MetabolismAuthor(s): Soham Mukherjee, S.N. SureshNeuron–astrocyte crosstalk is a tightly regulated process that is essential for overall proper functioning of the brain. Maria S. Ioannou et al. (Cell, 2019) revealed a novel and compelling function of neuron–astrocyte crosstalk that explains how neurons cope with their accumulating toxic lipid particles under various scenarios.
