Conservation of neuron-astrocyte coordinated activity among sensory processing centers of the developing brain

The paper shows that retinal ganglion cell activity induces correlated astrocyte calcium waves in the superior colliculus, dependent on mGluR5 and mGluR3, suggesting a conserved mechanism across sensory systems.
