The daily transfer of lipids from neurons to glia required neuronal lazarillo (NLaz), a fly apolipoprotein similar to human apolipoprotein E (APOE): knocking down NLaz reduced glial lipid droplet ...

“One feature of neuron-glia circuits that has long been known is that, in many cases, one glia makes functionally meaningful contacts with more than one neuron—sometimes as many as one thousand!” ...

For their newly reported research, Reh and colleagues genetically modified human Müller glia in the lab to switch on neuron-specific genetic programs that would naturally happen in fish.
