Protein‐Template Gold Nanoclusters Induce Differentiation and Modify the Functional Properties of Primary Astrocytes

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The incubation of primary astrocytes with fAuNCs‐BSA induces: (A) long‐term effects including fAuNCs‐BSA internalization, red cell fluorescence, differentiation, upregulation of Ca2+ signaling, Cl‐current, and cell volume regulation. B) Short‐term (200 ms) stimulation with UV LED light increases in Ca2+ signaling and inhibition of K+ current. Astrocyte
