Imaging calcium microdomains within entire astrocyte territories and endfeet with GCaMPs expressed using adeno-associated viruses
Intracellular Ca2+ transients are considered a primary signal by which astrocytes interact with neurons and blood vessels. With existing commonly used methods, Ca2+ has been studied only within astrocyte somata and thick branches, leaving the distal fine branchlets and endfeet that are most proximat...
