CXCR4-activated astrocyte glutamate release via TNFα: amplification by microglia triggers neurotoxicity
- P. Bezzi, M. Domercq, +8 authors A. Volterra
- Medicine, Biology
- Nature Neuroscience
- 1 July 2001
Astrocytes actively participate in synaptic integration by releasing transmitter (glutamate) via a calcium-regulated, exocytosis-like process. Here we show that this process follows activation of the… Expand

The current armamentarium for the chemotherapy of viral infections consists of 37 licensed antiviral drugs. For the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections, 19 compounds have been… Expand
Acyclic nucleoside phosphonates: a key class of antiviral drugs
Almost 20 years after the broad antiviral activity spectrum of the first acyclic nucleoside phosphonates was described, several of these compounds have become important therapies for DNA virus and… Expand
