Alteration of dentate gyrus astrocytes in diabetic rats: Protective role of Urtica dioica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Diabetes mellitus can cause astrocytes alterations in the central nervous system. Urtica dioica (Nettle) is among several species listed for their use against diabetes in folk medicine.

Alterations of gene expression and glutamate clearance in astrocytes derived from an MeCP2-null mouse model of Rett syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmetal disorder associated with mutations in the methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) gene. MeCP2-deficient mice recapitulate the neurological degeneration observed in RTT patients.

P2X1 and P2X5 subunits form the functional P2X receptor in mouse cortical astrocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
ATP plays an important role in signal transduction between neuronal and glial circuits and within glial networks. Here we describe currents activated by ATP in astrocytes acutely isolated from cortical brain slices by non-enzymatic mechanical ...

Brain Energy Metabolism: Astrocytes in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, 2022
Astrocytes are the most abundant cells in the brain. They have many important functions in the central nervous system (CNS), including the maintenance of glutamate and ion homeostasis, the elimination of oxidative stress, energy storage in glycogen ...

β-lactolin, a Monoamine Oxidase B Inhibitory Lactopeptide, Suppresses Reactive Oxygen Species Production in Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated Astrocytes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Astrocytes are known to regulate normal brain function. Monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), an enzyme highly expressed in astrocytes, metabolizes dopamine (DA) and induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.
