Astrocytes in schizophrenia [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a severe and clinically heterogenous mental disorder affecting approximately 1% of the population worldwide. Despite tremendous achievements in the field of schizophrenia research, its precise aetiology remains elusive. Besides dysfunctional neuronal signalling, the pathophysiology of schizophrenia appears to involve molecular and ...

Dynamic Transitions in Neuronal Network Firing Sustained by Abnormal Astrocyte Feedback
Astrocytes play a crucial role in neuronal firing activity. Their abnormal state may lead to the pathological transition of neuronal firing patterns and even induce seizures.

Vimentin Phosphorylation Is Required for Normal Cell Division of Immature Astrocytes
Vimentin (VIM) is an intermediate filament (nanofilament) protein expressed in multiple cell types, including astrocytes. Mice with VIM mutations of serine sites phosphorylated during mitosis (VIMSA/SA) show cytokinetic failure in fibroblasts and lens ...

By 2050, the aging population is predicted to expand by over 100%. Considering this rapid growth, and the additional strain it will place on healthcare resources because of age-related impairments, it is vital that researchers gain a deeper understanding of the cellular interactions that occur with normal aging.
