Astrocytes are morphologically complex, ubiquitous cells that are viewed as a
homogeneous population tiling the entire central nervous system (CNS). However, this view …

Astrocytes, the most abundant glial cells in the mammalian brain, are critical regulators of
brain development and physiology through dynamic and often bidirectional interactions with …

Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a nuclear-associated cytokine of the IL-1 family originally described
as a potent inducer of allergic type 2 immunity. IL-33 signals via the receptor ST2, which is …

Astrocytes exist throughout the nervous system and are proposed to affect neural circuits
and behavior. However, studying astrocytes has proven difficult because of the lack of tools …

Astrocytes have in recent years become the focus of intense experimental interest, yet
markers for their definitive identification remain both scarce and imperfect. Astrocytes may …

Astrocytes are the most abundant cell type in the central nervous system (CNS), providing
critical roles in the overall maintenance and homeostasis. Over 100 years ago, Cajal first …

Astrocytes are the predominant cell type in the brain and perform key functions vital to CNS
physiology, including blood brain barrier formation and maintenance, synaptogenesis …

Astrocytes, the most abundant cells in the central nervous system, promote synapse
formation and help to refine neural connectivity. Although they are allocated to spatially …

It is widely assumed that cells must be physically isolated to study their molecular profiles.
However, intact tissue samples naturally exhibit variation in cellular composition, which …

Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) undergo an extensive and coordinated migration in
the developing CNS, using the pre-formed scaffold of developed blood vessels as their …
