Functional immune cell–astrocyte interactions
Astrocytes are glial cells of the central nervous system (CNS) that are strategically positioned to control CNS immunity in the context of health and disease.

The role of reactive astrocitose in the chronological evolution of traumatic brain injury [PDF]
Introduction and objectives. This study aims to investigate whether the cerebral modifications of posttraumatic reactive astrocitose can be considered an objective criterion for determining the age of traumatic cranio-cerebral lesions.

Knockout of reactive astrocyte activating factors slows disease progression in an ALS mouse model
Reactive astrocytes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including a non-cell autonomous effect on motor neuron survival in ALS.

An efficient platform for astrocyte differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Summary: Growing evidence implicates the importance of glia, particularly astrocytes, in neurological and psychiatric diseases. Here, we describe a rapid and robust method for the differentiation of highly pure populations of replicative astrocytes from ...

The Emerging Nature of Astrocyte Diversity.
Astrocytes are morphologically complex, ubiquitous cells that are viewed as a homogeneous population tiling the entire central nervous system (CNS). However, this view has been challenged in the last few years with the availability of RNA sequencing ...

Sustained synchronized neuronal network activity in a human astrocyte co-culture system [PDF]
Impaired neuronal network function is a hallmark of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders such as autism, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease and is typically studied using genetically modified cellular and animal models.

Novel cell separation method for molecular analysis of neuron-astrocyte cocultures
Over the last decade, the importance of astrocyte-neuron communication in neuronal development and synaptic plasticity has become increasingly clear. Since neuron-astrocyte interactions represent highly dynamic and reciprocal processes, we hypothesized ...

Effects of 660-nm LED photobiomodulation on drebrin expression pattern and astrocyte migration
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a therapeutic tool that uses red or near-infrared light in medical applications. It’s applications in both central (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) are widely studied.
