The blood-brain barrier (BBB) plays a vital role in regulating the trafficking of fluid, solutes
and cells at the blood-brain interface and maintaining the homeostatic microenvironment of …

Data collected on astrocytes' physiology in the rodent have placed them as key regulators of
synaptic, neuronal, network, and cognitive functions. While these findings proved highly …

Astrocytes respond to neuronal activity and were shown to be necessary for plasticity and
memory. To test whether astrocytic activity is also sufficient to generate synaptic potentiation …

Transient or permanent loss of tissue perfusion due to ischaemic stroke can lead to damage
to the neurovasculature, and disrupt brain homeostasis, causing long-term motor and …

Astrocytes are non-neuronal cells that regulate synapses, neuronal circuits, and behavior.
Astrocytes ensheath neuronal synapses to form the tripartite synapse where astrocytes …

Astrocytes are key active elements of the brain that contribute to information processing.
They not only provide neurons with metabolic and structural support, but also regulate …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a frequent and disabling neurodegenerative disorder, in which
astrocytes participate in several pathophysiological processes including neuroinflammation …

Neuroinflammation and epilepsy are interconnected. Brain inflammation promotes neuronal
hyper-excitability and seizures, and dysregulation in the glia immune-inflammatory function …

Astrocytes play multifaceted and vital roles in maintaining neurophysiological function of the
central nervous system by regulating homeostasis, increasing synaptic plasticity, and …

Neurons have been long regarded as the basic functional cells of the brain, whereas
astrocytes and microglia only as elements of support. However, proper intercommunication …
