Scientists discover how glial cells detect neuron damage, potentially aiding treatments for cilia-related diseases.
Researchers at Rockefeller University have found a new way glial cells detect and respond to damage in neuron dendrites.
They discovered that two key proteins allow glial cells to monitor the hair-like cilia extending from dendrites.
This mechanism, studied in nematodes, could help treat diseases from defective cilia, like polycystic kidney disease, by enhancing our understanding of glial functions.
