Encephalitic alphaviruses (EEVs), Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI), and organophosphorus nerve agents (NAs) are three diverse biological, physical, and chemical injuries that can lead to long-term ...

Astrocytes are star-shaped glial cells in the central nervous system that support neuronal function, maintain the blood-brain barrier, and contribute to brain repair and homeostasis.

Instead of these factors, we will focus on two other components of insulitis: the dialog between β cells and the immune system via local production of chemokines and cytokines, and the putative ...

Researchers have discovered that astrocytes play an important role in regulating stress responses in the lateral septum in the brain. It is expected to provide new clues for mental health treatments.

Summary: Astrocytes, previously known for supporting nerve cells, have been identified as key regulators of stress responses in the lateral septum of the brain. Researchers demonstrated that ...

How do astrocytes react to Alzheimer’s disease pathology? It’s complicated, according to the largest single-nuclei RNA-Seq study of these cells published thus far. Scientists led by Sudeshna Das at ...
