## Abstract During early brain development, the axis of division of neuronal precursor cells is regulated tightly and can determine whether neurons remain in the germinal layers or migrate away. Directed neuronal migration depends on the establishment of cell polarity, and cells are polarized dynam
## Abstract Neurotransmitters released at synapses mediate Ca^2+^ signaling in astrocytes in CNS grey matter. Here, we show that ATP and glutamate evoke these Ca^2+^ signals in white matter astrocytes of the mouse optic nerve, a tract that contains neither neuronal cell bodies nor synapses. We furt
