Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular (Eph) receptors, including EphA4, are expressed on the cell surface and involved in brain development, which involves extensive pruning of synapses. A variant ...

Scientists have discovered that a specific type of brain cell, called an astrocyte, may be a key player in how cannabis ...

The researchers discovered a unique kind of astrocyte, a star-shaped cell that supports communication between brain cells, or neurons, and keeps them healthy by stabilizing the brain's protective ...

Researchers have created a four-dimensional brain map that reveals how MS-like lesions form, providing new insights into the earliest stages of the disease.

Magdalena Götz from Helmholtz Munich, LMU and the Munich Cluster for Systems Neurology (SyNergy), has identified different subtypes of white matter (WM) astrocytes, including a unique type with the ...

To address this question, we compared levels of proteins produced in synaptic compartments in neuronal and neuron–astrocyte co-cultures using modified Boyden chambers or astrocyte-conditioned medium.

Introduction: Ischemic stroke (IS) significantly alters brain cellular composition and gene expression, particularly in glial cells like astrocytes (ASTs), oligodendrocytes (OLs), and oligodendrocyte ...
