The slice was fixed and immuno-stained with an anti-GFAP antibody (grey). Astrocyte activity and metabolism is heavily integrated with neuronal activity. While classically, we think of astrocytes as ...

When neighboring neurons need an increase in energy supply, astrocytes jump into action by rapidly activating their own glucose stores and metabolism, leading to the increased production and ...

The researchers next looked at how astrocytes influenced the cancer’s metabolism. They conducted a genetic analysis on astrocytes of mice with glioblastoma tumors and those without, and noticed an ...

Astrocytes, known for their crucial role in ... facilitating cell communication, and regulating metabolism. The other is a highly specialized subtype found primarily in the cortical white matter.
