Trends in Cell Biology, 2023 Astrocytes are predominant glial cells that tile the central nervous system (CNS). A cardinal feature of astrocytes is their complex and visually enchanting morphology, referred to as bushy, spongy, and star-like. A central precept of this review is that such complex morphological shapes evolved to allow astrocytes to contact and signal with diverse ...

Molecular basis of astrocyte diversity and morphology across the CNS in health and disease
Science, 2022 Astrocytes, a type of glia, are abundant and morphologically complex cells. Here, we report astrocyte molecular profiles, diversity, and morphology across the mouse central nervous system (CNS).

Astrocytic neuroligins control astrocyte morphogenesis and synaptogenesis [PDF]
Nature, 2017 Astrocytes are complex glial cells with numerous fine cellular processes that infiltrate the neuropil and interact with synapses. The mechanisms that control the establishment of astrocyte morphology are unknown, and it is unclear whether impairing astrocytic infiltration of the neuropil alters synaptic connectivity.

Cell-Autonomous Regulation of Astrocyte Activation by the Circadian Clock Protein BMAL1 [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Circadian clock dysfunction is a common symptom of aging and neurodegenerative diseases, though its impact on brain health is poorly understood. Astrocyte activation occurs in response to diverse insults and plays a critical role in brain health

Astrocyte-neuron metabolic cooperation shapes brain activity.
Cell Metabolism, 2021 The brain has almost no energy reserve, but its activity coordinates organismal function, a burden that requires precise coupling between neurotransmission and energy metabolism.
