Excited to share that one of the very first research projects initiated in our ABCD lab, "Astrocytic Ankyrin-2 Enables Memory Persistence in the Mouse Hippocampus," has now been published in Nature Communications (DOI: 10.1038/s41467-026-75009-5). www.drkohlab.com/post/our-art...

Astrocytic Ankyrin-2 Enables Memory Persistence in the Mouse Hippocampus

Why do some memories last for weeks, months, or even years, while others quickly fade away? Astrocytes may hold the key.

When the stars of glial scar borders and stroke recovery “have a baby”, it gives this 😅 #astrocytes #stroke #cerebrovascular

Regionally mapped astrocytic responses to cortical and white matter stroke show differential roles in astrocyte-induced vascular remodeling

Stroke is a major cause of disability. Astrocytes respond to stroke in a gradated manner, but details of that response and its consequences for tissue…

The shifting landscape of the preterm brain

Kratimenos et al. examine the shifting landscape of the preterm brain, highlighting evolving vulnerabilities due to improved survival at earlier gestational ages. They review mechanisms of injury, including hypoxia-ischemia and inflammation, and explore current and emerging therapies to improve neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants.
