Astrocytes and Aging [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
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.

The Synucleins and the Astrocyte

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Synucleins consist of three proteins exclusively expressed in vertebrates. α-Synuclein (αS) has been identified as the main proteinaceous aggregate in Lewy bodies, a pathological hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases. Less is understood about β-synuclein (βS) and γ-synuclein (γS), although it is known βS can interact with αS in vivo to inhibit ...

COVID‐19 and the risk of Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and multiple sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1953-1961, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on the healthcare system, economy, and society. Studies have reported that COVID‐19 may cause various neurologic symptoms, including cognitive impairment.

A transient inflammatory response contributes to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity in mice

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1985-1998, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives Peripheral neuropathy is a relevant dose‐limiting adverse event that can affect up to 90% of oncologic patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin treatment. The severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or even premature cessation of chemotherapy.

Porosome in astrocytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2009
AbstractSecretion is a universal cellular process occurring in bakers yeast, to the complex multicellular organisms, to humans beings. Neurotransmission, digestion, immune response or the release of hormones occur as a result of cell secretion. Secretory defects result in numerous diseases and hence a molecular understanding of the process is critical.

Neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative disorders: the roles of microglia and astrocytes

open access: yesTranslational Neurodegeneration, 2020
Neuroinflammation is associated with neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Microglia and astrocytes are key regulators of inflammatory responses in the central nervous system. The

Reactive astrocytes acquire neuroprotective as well as deleterious signatures in response to Tau and Aß pathology

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) alters astrocytes, but the effect of Aß and Tau pathology is poorly understood. TRAP-seq translatome analysis of astrocytes in APP/PS1 ß-amyloidopathy and MAPTP301S tauopathy mice revealed that only Aß influenced expression of AD

The astrocyte odyssey [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Neurobiology, 2008
Neurons have long held the spotlight as the central players of the nervous system, but we must remember that we have equal numbers of astrocytes and neurons in the brain. Are these cells only filling up the space and passively nurturing the neurons, or do they also contribute to information transfer and processing?

Emergent dynamics in an astrocyte-neuronal network coupled via nitric oxide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In the brain, both neurons and glial cells work in conjunction with each other during information processing. Stimulation of neurons can cause calcium oscillations in astrocytes which in turn can affect neuronal calcium dynamics. The "glissandi" effect is one such phenomenon, associated with a decrease in infraslow fluctuations, in which synchronized ...

Transplantation of A2 type astrocytes promotes neural repair and remyelination after spinal cord injury

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2023
Background Limited progress in terms of an effective treatment for spinal cord injury (SCI) emphasizes the urgent need for novel therapies. As a vital central nervous system component, the resident astrocytes play crucial roles in regulating recovery ...
