Neuron-Glial Interactions
Maurizio De Pittà
Although lagging behind classical computational neuroscience, theoretical and computational approaches are beginning to emerge to characterize different aspects of neuron-glial int…
G protein-coupled receptor-mediated calcium signaling in astrocytes
Maurizio De Pittà, Eshel Ben-Jacob, Hugues Berry
Astrocytes express a large variety of G~protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) which mediate the transduction of extracellular signals into intracellular calcium responses. This transdu…
Glia
Maurizio De Pittà
Essential introduction to glial cells with emphasis on astrocytes, microglia and their interplay in reactive astrogliosis.
Myelin and saltatory conduction
Maurizio De Pittà
Essential tutorial on myelin, oligodendrocytes and their functional relevance in the pathophysiology of the brain.
Emergence of regular and complex calcium oscillations by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate signaling in astrocytes
Valeri Matrosov, Susan Gordleeva, Natalia Boldyreva +4
We use tools of bifurcation theory to characterize dynamics of astrocytic~IP and~Ca for different~IP regimes from a mathematical point of view. We do so following a…
Multimodal encoding in a simplified model of intracellular calcium signaling
Maurizio De Pitta`, Vladislav Volman, Herbert Levine +1
Many cells use calcium signalling to carry information from the extracellular side of the plasma membrane to targets in their interior. Since virtually all cells employ a network o…
