Abstract

AbstractA sophisticated new cell-culture system has shown that glial cells can promote synaptogenesis and enhance the efficacy of synaptic transmission. These effects are not secondary to increased neuronal survival but probably involve changes in neuronal activity levels and a secreted glial factor.
