Inebilizumab in AQP4-Seropositive NMOSD: One-Year Follow-Up From a Multicenter, Real-World Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Real‐world evidence on inebilizumab among neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) patients is lacking. This study assessed inebilizumab among Chinese patients with aquaporin 4 autoantibody (AQP4‐IgG)‐seropositive NMOSD in a real‐world setting.

HD-tDCS Restores Perivascular AQP4 Polarization via PPARγ Modulation to Enhance Glymphatic Clearance After Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Mice. [PDF]
HD‐tDCS promotes recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage by enhancing PPARγ‐dependent astrocyte remodeling in a mouse model of ICH. This process suppresses proinflammatory astrocytic activation, restores perivascular AQP4 repolarization, and improves glymphatic influx and efflux, thereby facilitating hematoma and perihematomal edema clearance and ...

Astrocyte subtype-specific alterations in the dentate gyrus of individuals with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. [PDF]
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects approximately 50 million people worldwide and, although primarily attributed to neuronal dysfunction, increasing evidence highlights a critical role of glial cells, particularly astrocytes, in the pathophysiological mechanisms.

Evaluation of gliovascular functions of Aqp4 readthrough isoforms
Abstract Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a water channel protein that links astrocytic endfeet to the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and regulates water and potassium homeostasis in the brain, as well as the glymphatic clearance of waste products that would otherwise potentiate neurological diseases.

Entorhinal Astrocyte Transplants Restore Spatial Exploration and Alleviate Amyloid-Beta Pathology in Alzheimer's Mice. [PDF]
Impaired MEC astrocytic Ca2+ signaling is associated with fragmented spatial exploration in AD mice. Region‐specific glial progenitor transplantation generates engrafted astrocytes that are accompanied by improved AQP4 polarization, reduced amyloid‐β‐associated pathology, attenuated neuroinflammation, preserved synaptic integrity, and ameliorated ...
