Radial astrocyte synchronization modulates the visual system during behavioral-state transitions

AI Summary

Zebrafish larvae change behavior when strongly stimulated, involving an escape response followed by freezing. This is due to glia-neuron interaction, allowing the nervous system to self-regulate.

Uribe-Arias et al. show that upon strong sensory stimulation, zebrafish larvae change their behavioral state, characterized by an escape response followed by freezing. This behavioral transition is mediated by the interaction between glia and neurons, allowing the nervous system to modulate itself using long time constants.
