Astrocytes represent a highly abundant cell type in the central nervous system (CNS) 1, fulfilling important functions, including support of neuronal metabolism, synaptogenesis, neurotransmitter ...
Astrocytes derived from ASD individuals alter behavior and destabilize neuronal activity through aberrant Ca 2+ signaling Fig. 1: Histopathological changes in PS2APP mice and ATP-evoked astrocyte Ca ...
And yet we know surprisingly little about them. While the cellular biology of this critical organ has been mapped out, ...
A research team has identified different subtypes of white matter (WM) astrocytes, including a unique type with the ability to multiply and potentially aid in brain repair. Using single-cell RNA ...
Scientists have engineered a nanowire platform that mimics brain tissue to study astrocytes, the star-shaped cells critical for brain health, for the first time in their natural state. Astrocytes are ...
The mechanism underlying astrocyte-mediated restoration of brain tissue after an injury has now been pinpointed by a team of researchers. This could lead to new treatments that encourage regeneration ...
When we learn a new motor skill—whether mastering a piano passage or refining balance while walking—the brain must reorganize the circuits that control movement. For decades, this process of synaptic ...
