Astrocytes are a population of cells with distinctive morphological and functional characteristics that differ within specific areas of the brain. Postnatally, astrocytes progenitors migrate to reach their brain area and related properties. They have a regulatory role of brain functions: are implicated in...
Brain cells continuously produce and release protons into the extracellular space, with the rate of acid production corresponding to the levels of neuronal activity and metabolism. Efficient buffering and removal of excess H+is essential for brain function, not least because all the electrogenic and b...
Astrocytes and Brain Function: Implications for Reproduction Recent evidence suggests that astrocytes have important neuroregulatory functions in addition to their classic functions of support and segregation of neur...

Recently, astrocytes have been implicated in the brain mechanisms that maintain endurance capacity38, although the specific contribution of brainstem and especially preBötC astroglia and the potential underlying mechanisms of this involvement were not addressed. We found that expression of dnSNARE or ...
Astrocytes, from brain glue to communication elements: the revolution continues Reactive astrocytes: cellular and molecular cues to biological function. Subventricular zone astrocytes are neural stem cells in the adult mammalian brain. Generation of neurons and astrocytes from isolated cells of the adult ...
Since the function and ontology of microglia was unknown at that time, and furthermore, the cells of the brain where divided into two types: neurons and “others”, which were termed by the generic expression “glia” (e.g. astroglia and oligodendroglia ), the term microglia was a ...

Astrocytes become reactive following various brain insults; however, the functions of reactive astrocytes are poorly understood. Here, we show that reactive astrocytes function as phagocytes after transient ischemic injury and appear in a limited spatiotemporal pattern. Following transient brain ischemia, ...
