Meta-analysis of mouse transcriptomic studies supports a context-dependent astrocyte reaction in acute CNS injury versus neurodegeneration

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2020
Background Neuronal damage in acute CNS injuries and chronic neurodegenerative diseases is invariably accompanied by an astrocyte reaction in both mice and humans.

Microfluidic device to study spatial and temporal response of astrocyte networks in response to changes in the biochemical milieu. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrosyst Nanoeng
Astrocytes are the most abundant cell type in the central nervous system and are major players in brain homeostasis and inflammation. Astrocytes form a syncytial three-dimensional (3D) network across the brain tissue.

Ompa Is the Critical Component for Escherichia Coli Invasion-Induced Astrocyte Activation

open access: yes, 2010
Escherichia coli is the major Gram-negative bacterial pathogen in neonatal meningitis. Outer membrane protein A ( OmpA) is a conserved major protein in the E. coli outer membrane and is involved in several host- cell interactions.

Astrocyte activation in neurovascular damage and repair following ischaemic stroke

open access: yes, 2021
Transient or permanent loss of tissue perfusion due to ischaemic stroke can lead to damage to the neurovasculature, and disrupt brain homeostasis, causing long-term motor and cognitive deficits. Despite promising pre-clinical studies, clinically approved

Astrocyte-neuron circuits in epilepsy

open access: yes, 2023
The epilepsies are a diverse spectrum of disease states characterized by spontaneous seizures and associated comorbidities. Neuron-focused perspectives have yielded an array of widely used anti-seizure medications and are able to explain some, but not ...

Wakefulness affects synaptic and network activity by increasing extracellular astrocyte-derived adenosine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Loss of sleep causes an increase in sleep drive and deficits in hippocampal-dependent memory. Both of these responses are thought to require activation of adenosine A1 receptors (adorA1Rs) and release of transmitter molecules including ATP, which is ...

Astrocyte as Spatiotemporal Integrating Detector of Neuronal Activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The functional role of astrocyte calcium signaling in brain information processing was intensely debated in recent decades. This interest was motivated by high resolution imaging techniques showing highly developed structure of distal astrocyte processes.

Astrocytes in aging

open access: yesNeuron
The mammalian nervous system is impacted by aging. Aging alters brain architecture, is associated with molecular damage, and can manifest with cognitive and motor deficits that diminish the quality of life. Astrocytes are glial cells of the CNS that regulate the development, function, and repair of neural circuits during development and adulthood ...

Biological and prognostic insights into the prostaglandin D2 signaling axis in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundTumor metabolism reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer, but metabolite-mediated intercellular communication remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we estimated and explored communication events exploring based on single‐cell RNA data ...

Effects of 660-nm LED photobiomodulation on drebrin expression pattern and astrocyte migration

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
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.
